After Action Report
In a track meet, the Knicks held off the Raptors 116-107. Knicks' offense had its way with the Raptors. Second-chance points piled up for the Knicks; the Knicks came in with something to prove after a loss. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Knicks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
