After Action Report

In New York, the Raptors ran roughshod over the Knicks 140-92. The Knicks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Raptors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Knicks' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a Knicks locker-room rift aren't helping. The Raptors rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Knicks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
