After Action Report
In Toronto, the Celtics snuck past the Raptors 106-103. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Celtics carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Celtics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Celtics bench chemistry carried them. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
