After Action Report

The Raptors demolished the Nuggets 131-111. The Nuggets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Raptors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Raptors came in with something to prove after a loss. Raptors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
