The Toronto Raptors are set to face the New York Knicks for the fourth time this season. The Knicks have had a mixed bag lately, going six wins and four losses in their last 10 games, while averaging 112 points per game. They snapped the spurs 11 game winning streak, with a solid 114-89 victory on March 1st. Since their last matchup against the Raptors on January 28th, the Knicks have shown some highs and lows. A tough sweep by the piston stands out as a key setback. Still, they've pulled off strong wins against top teams, keeping them in the playoff hunt. Fans and analysts point to inconsistency as the Knicks biggest hurdle right now. They shine against elite opponents one night, but struggle against middling squads the next. That unpredictability has defined their stretch through January and February. One big boost came from trade deadline pickup, Jose Alvarado.

1:00In nine games, he's averaged 8.4 points, 3.9 assists and 2.9 rebounds. He dropped 26 on the 76ers and 12 against the Celtics, bringing the defense and hustle the team craved. Looking ahead, the Knicks hold an 11 game winning streak over the Raptors franchise. A Knicks victory seems likely, say 118-94, with their bench stepping up big in the third quarter in Mikal Bridges. Topping 25 points, the key will be staying healthy, especially Jalen Brunson. Special thanks to our sponsor for supporting this episode. Podcasts hit different when the sound comes from your pillow.
