After Action Report
The Raptors edged the Knicks 109-102. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Knicks came in with something to prove after a loss; the Knicks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Raptors bench chemistry carried them. Raptors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
