@FlameRaptorRaven's rating of Raptors vs 76ers

@FlameRaptorRaven rated the Raptors vs 76ers game 7.3 out of 10 in NBA on November 9, 2025. Final score: Raptors 120 – 76ers 130. Reg. Season. Fan ratings and discussion on RateGame.

Close battle, 76ers just pulled away. This was a pretty good game all things considered, including the incredible old school Sixers jerseys. Nothing spectacular, but a good close game between a couple bitter rivals. For the Raptors, lots of positives to take from this. They completely shut down VJ (until the end of the 4th). The fast break remains both productive and useful for throwing teams off, many of their runs came off that and the offense remains efficient, that happening in the second game of a back-to-back makes it especially promising. But the stat that I thought defined this game was points in the paint. 56-34 in favour of Philly (64% too). CMB and Barnes are objectively good defenders, but they’re not elite rim protectors and that is an issue; even against a hobbled Embiid. Maxey also balled out but I was most impressed by Watford. He not only got 20 points of his own but did a great job setting up Maxey and Embiid with passes and screens while out rebounding every Raptor.
