After Action Report
The Raptors fended off the Knicks 105-98. The Knicks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Raptors. The Raptors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; shots just aren't falling for the Knicks lately. The Knicks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Raptors rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Knicks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
