After Action Report
The Celtics survived the Raptors 109-108. Celtics torched the Raptors on the offensive end. The Raptors answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Raptors bent the defense out of shape from deep. Whispers of a Raptors locker-room rift aren't helping. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- 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.
