After Action Report
The Raptors squeaked past the Celtics 104-100. Ugly basketball, but the Raptors did just enough. Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Raptors owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Celtics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Celtics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
