The Raps look to rebound after a tough outing in Detroit. The starters for this one is up in the air after Kyle has missed the last 2 games. It is expected that Kawhi will not play as this is the second night of a back to back however if he suits up in this one Raptors fans will be rejoicing. The Knicks will also be on the second night of a back to back after beating the Lakers at the buzzer thanks to the legend killer Mario Herzojna. No excuses for T.O in this one, even if neither Kyle or Kawhi plays this one should be a win against the dumpster fire that is the New York Knicks. Marc Gasol needs to have a bounce back game after 2 lack luster performances during the absence or Serge "Liddell" Ibaka. A poor performance in this one may all but hand the starting spot to Ibaka going forward.
Berta's things to keep an eye on: Eric Mooreland will be looking to earn a contract as the 3rd centre for the rest of the season. He has played with energy and toughness in his first 2 games as a Raptors. With the buy out market lacking attractive candidates a good performance could help to secure Mooreland a spot on a contending team for the remainder of the season.
