Short-handed Nets no match for Raptors
NY Post
The Raptors was rested and resurgent, and played like it. The Nets were tired and shorthanded, and their struggles showed that too. At least once the bottom fell out.
The undermanned Nets coughed up a huge third-quarter run, and didn’t have the legs or healthy bodies to come back in a 114-103 road loss to the Raptors on Wednesday night. The tail end of a back-to-back, marked the Nets’ 11th straight defeat on the road against the Raptors, dating to their last victory on Feb. 4, 2015. The first 10 of those losses were in Toronto, while Wednesday’s was at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Fla. Canada or Florida, it wouldn’t have mattered.More Related News

It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
