Game 70 Knicks at Raptors (Afternoon Game)

No more Mr. Nice Raptors!! The New York Knicks come to town for their last Toronto visit of the season and the Raptors will be looking for revenge after how the last New York game went down.


  • Former Raptor #1 Draft Pick Andrea Bargnani makes his return to town. He's been out for most of this season and now that he's back he's become the Knick's number one option. Much like he was touted as when he played for us and if you're wondering if it's going any better for the Knicks i'll save you the suspense. It's not. Sure his numbers aren't the worst, but Carmelo Anthony is out for the season, Amar'e Stoudamire was waived and signed in Dallas, so Bargnani is what the Knicks fans have for now.
  • Tim Hardaway Jr. is listed as day-to-day after leaving a game last week with a wrist injury.
  • If Bargnani is going to get mercilessly booed tonight expect a warm reception for other former Raptor fan favourites Quincy Acy and Jose Calderon.
  • Kyle Lowry is still a game time decision after leaving Wednesday's game against the Timberwolves. He missed Friday's loss to The Bulls. He might skip this one in favour of being ready for tougher opponents, but i'm sure we all remember what happened during the last Knicks game when we didn't have Lowry.
Song Of The Day

Alicia Keys - "Empire State Of Mind (Pt. 2) Broken Down"

I've got some kind of love-jones for a female vocalist who can also play the piano. Just something about it, classic and velvety smooth. Alicia Keys is one of recent history's most talented female artists. "Empire State Of Mind Pt.2" is Alicia's solo take on the first part of a song that was featured originally on Jay-Z's The Blueprint 3. I prefer Keys' version though, definitely captures that New York feel, where you can feel completely alone and isolated in the world's biggest and busiest city.



Boooooooooooooooooo.....just getting warm
