After Action Report
The Raptors survived the Hawks 90-88. Ugly basketball, but the Raptors did just enough. The Raptors answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Raptors' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Whispers of a Hawks locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Hawks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Hawks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Raptors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
