After Action Report
In a track meet, the Raptors demolished the Bulls 139-119. The tempo dragged the Bulls into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Raptors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Raptors sent shots into the fifth row all night. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Raptors · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
- Raptors · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Bulls · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
