After Action Report

The Raptors knocked off the Lakers 118-100. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Raptors' outside barrage was a constant threat; Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Raptors per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. An upset for the books.
