Kyle Lowry<\/strong><\/a> was the hero for the\u00a0 Toronto Raptors<\/a>. However, it was not just his efforts alone that won the game against the Los Angeles Lakers<\/a>. It was Fred VanVleet<\/strong><\/a>, OG Anunoby<\/strong><\/a>, and their amazing defense. Most importantly, it was how they started and finished the game that should make Raptors fans happy.<\/p>\n

Three Keys to the Game<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Positive Start to the Game<\/strong><\/h4>\n

This point might be overlooked, but the Raptors started the game on a 13-0 run according to ca.global.nba.com<\/a>. Yes, they gave up most of the lead in the first quarter, with the Raptors ending up with only a two-point lead at the end of the first quarter, but it played a factor in the Raptors winning.<\/p>\n

Anunoby played a big role in that positive start scoring seven of the Raptors first 13 points. This was a critical factor in the Raptors win over the Lakers.<\/p>\n
