For the NBA, it's March 4th, here's what's happening. Make sure you're subscribed so you never miss an update. The New York Knicks grabbed a win over the Toronto Raptors at Scotiabank Arena, finishing 111 to 95. It was a matchup with big playoff seating on the line, but the Knicks lived to organize on both ends for much of the night. Jalen Brunson paced the team with 26 points and 10 assists, while Carl Anthony Towns added 21 points and 13 rebounds. Still, sloppy offense and soft defense let Toronto hang around way longer than it should have. Early in the game, Scotty Barnes shadowed Brunson tightly, forcing tough shots and turnovers that kept the first quarter-raiser close at 32-31 Knicks. Meanwhile, Mitchell Robinson took a scary spill on his left ankle, grabbing a rebound, but gutted it out to return with 10 boards in key rim. The Knicks led 68-58 at halftime, only to get out scored in the third quarter and

head to the fourth up, just five. They finally locked in defensively, dominating 24-13 in the final frame to seal it. A win keeps them rolling, but fans and coaches know they need far crisper play to make noise come postseason time. This episode is brought to you by our sponsor, See the episode description.
