After Action Report
The Raptors ran roughshod over the Nets 126-102. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Raptors cashed in. The Raptors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Raptors pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Raptors bench chemistry carried them. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Nets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Nets · 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.
