After Action Report
In Toronto, the Raptors fended off the Celtics 102-95. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Raptors ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the Celtics couldn't shake the cold spell. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
