NYK vs TOR ScoutingNYK vs TOR Scouting
Welcome to the scouting desk. The coffee is cold, the film is play-by-play, and somebody has to explain what happened.
Every game has a hinge — a stretch where it was decided, usually while everyone was watching something else. Start where the evidence lives: the Lineups' face-offs say which five actually won their minutes; the Possessions ledger says who ran ahead of the night's own pace; the Shot Chart says where the points really came from, which is rarely where the highlights were. When all three agree, that is the story. When they don't — that is why this desk has a chair.

Knicks beat Raptors 116-94 for their 4th straight victory
NEW YORK -- — Josh Hart had 20 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists, Karl-Anthony Towns added 22 points and eight rebounds and the New York Knicks beat the Toronto Raptors 116-94 on Sunday for their fourth straight victory.
Jalen Brunson had 18 points, seven assists and six rebounds, and Mikal Bridges and Miles McBride each scored 14 points. The Knicks improved to 10-1 at home and 13-6 overall. They are perfect since Hart joined the starting lineup last week.
Immanuel Quickley had 19 points and eight assists for Toronto against his former team, and Scottie Barnes added 18 points. The Raptors dropped to 14-7, a night after their nine-game winning streak ended at Charlotte.
The Knicks and Raptors will meet in the NBA Cup Eastern Conference semifinals in Toronto on Dec. 9.
The Knicks nearly blew a 24-point first-half lead to the resilient Raptors, who cut New York’s lead to three at 70-67 midway through the third.
But Hart and Bridges keyed a 16-1 run over a 4:20 span to help the Knicks pull away again. Hart had eight points, with two made 3-pointers, and Bridges scored six points on the run and assisted on each of Hart’s 3s.
