After Action Report
The Raptors squeaked past the Nets 100-97. The Raptors won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Raptors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Raptors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Nets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.
