After Action Report

In a track meet, the Raptors outlasted the Celtics 114-104. Raptors torched the Celtics on the offensive end. Second-chance points piled up for the Raptors; the Raptors carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Celtics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
