After Action Report
The Raptors outlasted the Heat 101-89. Ugly basketball, but the Raptors did just enough. Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Raptors came in with something to prove after a loss. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Heat utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Raptors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
