After Action Report
The Raptors snuck past the Suns 106-101. The breakneck pace played right into Raptors' hands. Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Raptors pushed the pace until the other side broke. Raptors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
