After Action Report
The Pistons ran roughshod over the Raptors 130-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. The Raptors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Raptors bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Raptors looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
