After Action Report
In Toronto, the Knicks took care of the Raptors 121-107. The tempo dragged the Raptors into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Shots just aren't falling for the Knicks lately; the Knicks pushed the pace until the other side broke. Whispers of a Raptors locker-room rift aren't helping. Early returns: the Knicks per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
