After Action Report
In Toronto, the Raptors buried the Kings 125-81. The Kings had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Raptors steamroller is in full effect right now. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed. Raptors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Raptors · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Kings · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
