Halftime

This is the game flow the Raiders need. They're in no rush and making nearly every offensive possession count for something. East is shooting 60%. Boyd is right behind them at 55%, but only 1/6 from behind the arc. 

Good half for my Raiders if they cut out the 2nd chance points and take care of the ball they will have a shot. I think the longer the game goes and the Raiders are keeping it close Boyd knows they are supposed to win may get a little tight.

Holbrook splashes a 3 to open the second half. Biggest lead of the night for the Lions. 

Hall again for East. He's got 14.

Holbrook connects again for 3. He's got 10.

Ellis turns East over and finishes at the other end. Three turnovers in a hurry for the Raiders.
