After Action Report
In Toronto, the Raptors pulled away from the Celtics 100-86. The Celtics couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Raptors. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Raptors; Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Raptors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
