Revenge they sought. Revenge they got.
The last time the Nets and Raptors met, the Nets took home an overtime victory that sparked them on a seven-game win streak. It’s the reason why we’re talking playoffs in Brooklyn, not tanking.
But it didn’t look that way on Friday night.
The Raptors (32-12) — now winners of four straight — absolutely annihilated the Nets (21-23), 122-105, Friday night at the Scotiabank Arena. The Nets, who entered Friday as the seven seed in the East, knew it would be no easy task to take down the two seed, especially in Toronto where the Raptors are 18-4.
