After Action Report
In Toronto, the Raptors squeaked past the Warriors 112-111. Raptors' offense had its way with the Warriors. Raptors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Raptors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Early returns: the Raptors per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
