After Action Report
The Raptors snuck past the Nets 127-123. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Raptors cashed in. The Raptors came in with something to prove after a loss; the Raptors pushed the pace until the other side broke. Raptors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Nets · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
