After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks ran roughshod over the Raptors 125-100. The Knicks got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Knicks bent the defense out of shape from deep; Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. Raptors' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
