After Action Report
The Raptors ran roughshod over the Mavericks 136-109. The tempo dragged the Mavericks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Raptors' stars took over and bent the game to their will. The Raptors bench chemistry carried them. Garbage time started early.
