After Action Report
The Raptors held off the Hawks 122-114. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Raptors cashed in. Raptors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Hawks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Hawks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
