Game thread: New York Knicks vs Toronto Raptors 11/22/2017 7:30

41-10 destruction of the Raps in the 3rd. Everyone seeming to chip in with Frank and LT chipping in with 3s.

we never could've played like this with melo on the team

were shooting 51% to their 38%

Amazing 3rd qtr. turnaround .. The elite DEFENSE!
Raps 0-12 in 3Q!
They are in the groove the Raps were in early on .. let's keep it up

Raps cut the lead to 10. It would be nice if KP took over with 6:30 left.

I blame KP for this come back from the raptors

KP fighting them off now. Lead back to 11 with less than 5 minutes to go.

Big 3 by Timmy to match his season high.

What a game for THJ. Just a great, great game for him. Most importantly, he?s hitting big shots when it matters most for us. 10 point lead late in the 4th.

Hardaway putting the icing on the game!

We?re a legit team when playing at MSG.

Kanter just gave his sneakers to Tracy Morgan.

Game over 10 pt lead with 20 secs left. 108-100 win by the Knicks 6th game this season they have come back from a double digit deficit. Guess who is doing the post game interview, hint its not the guy from Latvia.

Happy for Timmy, when he was a rookie I said I thought he was the closest to a sure thing you had in the NBA because of his dad and the fact that he's been training to be an NBA player since he was a kid. Took him a while but I see a very good player developing.

Timmy credited the Garden crowd feeding their energy in his post game. Now they have to do it on the road, Hawks are beatable down in ATL Fri.

Dang Tim Jr snapped wow most of us thought that was another bad contract...might turn into the steal of the summer...I?m starting to trust our front office a bit more...

Boy just saw the highlight of the Knicks first bucket of the game:Kanter with the facial!!! Whoever #9 is on the Craptors got served ball smacked him all in the grill and everything somebody needs to post that one on chief

timmyyyyyyyyyyy
earning that moneyyyyyyyy hahaha
the guy is, game by game, reinventing himself before our very eyes. i can dig it.
hopefully that foot issue he was having doesn't turn out to be a recurring nuisance.
4 players in knicks history have recorded a 38 pt 7 rebound 7 assist game in the last 50 years.
patrick ewing
bernard king
walt frazier
tim hardaway jr
oh by the way KP with 22 pts and 12 rebounds
and that facial by kanter to start the game was just priceless lol

i tell ya when those 2 guys get cookin' it is fun to watch. takes a lot of pressure off KP. almost every time we win it's someone different doing something special.

That was my only complaint was why were the Knicks the only team willing to pay him $72M. It's not looking like such a smart move now for the Hawks letting Timmy walk esp with the money teams are payinig guys these days. Timmy really has impressed me with his speed, athleticism, ball handling and defense. Only weakness is his streaky shooting at times which he can mitigate by driving to the rim for easy buckets when the 3 isn't falling.
