After Action Report

In Toronto, the Raptors demolished the Celtics 125-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Raptors cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Raptors; the Raptors came in with something to prove after a loss. Early returns: the Raptors per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
