Coming home off a dominating performance in Atlanta, the Toronto Raptors started slowly Friday, then responded nicely... then watched it all slip away as the Utah Jazz executed down the stretch and the Raptors could not.
That’s a Bad Loss to a Bad Team
The Jazz were 20-28, had lost six of ten coming in and were on Game 3 of a three-game Eastern trip. The Raptors were 32-14, playing at home having played once since Saturday.
The Raptors had a 12-point lead in the third quarter, a 6-point lead with 2:20 to play and a 3-point lead with 45 seconds to play; at that point their win probability was 89.
