After Action Report
In Toronto, the Knicks squeaked past the Raptors 90-89. The Knicks won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Knicks bent the defense out of shape from deep; Raptors' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Knicks bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
