After Action Report
The Raptors took care of the Heat 109-98. The tempo dragged the Heat into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Raptors came in with something to prove after a loss; the Raptors pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed. Raptors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
