Game 55: Raptors at Knicks

Raptors back on the winning track after defeating the Memphis Grizzlies last night. Next stop is New York City to play their Atlantic Division rival Knicks.

• The Knicks recently signed Jimmer Fredette to a 10-day contract from the D-League. Fredette was the D-League All Star game MVP. I guess the Knicks figure any help they can get at the guard position is worth taking.
• The Knicks also recently fired their head coach Derek Fisher. Anything can change in a New York minute eh? Hmmm
• Any win over New York is gravy. All Raptors fans have one eye on New York's record as we own their draft pick this year. The Knicks have no intentions of letting the season get away however and can be a tough team to match up with. Robin Lopez, Aaron Aflalo and Kristaps Porzingis can all have big nights and then theres this guy named Carmelo something...

Tonight's Raptor Track

Don Henley - "New York Minute"

Really it seems every artist around has a track written about NYC. It is one of the biggest and best cities in the world, it's only natural that it would inspire people to write songs about it. The term New York Minute has become added into common vernacular referring to how fast-paced New York is.

Raptors 2nd in East 36-18! Knicks 12th in East 24-33!
