After Action Report

The Raptors fended off the Heat 133-127 in overtime. The tempo dragged the Heat into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Shots just aren't falling for the Raptors lately; Heat's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Heat · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
