After Action Report
The Raptors blew the doors off the Cavaliers 121-96. Raptors controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Raptors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Cavaliers are in a full-on tailspin. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed. Raptors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Cavaliers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
