After Action Report
The Raptors handled the Lakers 126-112. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Raptors cashed in. The Lakers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Lakers' outside barrage was a constant threat. Raptors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
