SALT LAKE CITY - The focus coming in was defending the paint.

But leaving Salt Lake City, the focus has shifted to basic pride.

That’s what happens after a team gives in the way the Raptors did in a humiliating display of basketball.

The Raptors locker room door stayed closed for much longer than it normally does following last night’s 131-99 drubbing at the hands of a Utah Jazz team that was without leading scorer Al Jefferson and reserve big man Derrick Favours.
