After Action Report

The Raptors survived the Bobcats 111-106. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Raptors owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed. Raptors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Bobcats · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
