After Action Report
In Toronto, the Pistons blew the doors off the Raptors 104-78. Pistons' starting five clicked while the Raptors looked disjointed. Pistons' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; the Raptors came in with something to prove after a loss. Whispers of a Raptors locker-room rift aren't helping. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
