After Action Report

The Warriors blew the doors off the Raptors 103-83. The Raptors couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Warriors. Warriors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Raptors couldn't shake the cold spell. The Warriors bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Warriors per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Warriors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
