After Action Report
In Toronto, the Rockets rolled past the Raptors 128-74. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. Rockets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Raptors' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Whispers of a Raptors locker-room rift aren't helping. The Raptors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
