After Action Report
The Raptors survived the Cavaliers 102-99. Raptors' offense had its way with the Cavaliers. The Raptors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Raptors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed. The Cavaliers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
