After Action Report

The Raptors handled the Pistons 106-96. Every possession went the Raptors way. The Raptors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Pistons' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Raptors bench chemistry carried them.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
