After Action Report
The Warriors squeaked past the Raptors 104-99. The Warriors won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Warriors came in with something to prove after a loss; second-chance points piled up for the Raptors. Whispers of a Raptors locker-room rift aren't helping. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Raptors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Warriors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
