After Action Report

In New Orleans, the Raptors shocked the Hornets 112-106. The tempo dragged the Hornets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Raptors; Raptors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Raptors bench chemistry carried them. The Raptors rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
