After Action Report

The Raptors handled the Nets 105-89. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Raptors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Raptors' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Nets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
