After Action Report
The Raptors upended the Celtics 114-111. The breakneck pace played right into Raptors' hands. Fresh off a statement win, the Raptors stayed locked in; 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. An upset for the books.
