After Action Report
In Atlanta, the Raptors shocked the Hawks 126-120. The Hawks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Fresh off a statement win, the Raptors stayed locked in; Raptors' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
