Here are 10 takeaways from the Toronto Raptors’ 84-76 loss to the Miami Heat.
One — Unwatchable: I love defense as much as anybody, but this game was just difficult to watch. Neither team had any semblance of rhythm, nor could they capitalize on open opportunities. Miami was sloppy in their halfcourt offense, while the Raptors were just outright uninventive and unlucky. The Heat got a boost from rookie Tyler Herro early in the fourth, and that was enough to decide the game.
Two — Historic: The Raptors shot 6-of-42 (14.3 percent) from deep, which is officially the worst three-point performance in franchise history.
