One would think that the New York Knicks are a perfect team to face while incorporating a new player. However that turned out to be only partially true as Marc Gasol put forth a very solid game in his debut, with seven points, six rebounds, and one block while the rest of the team (minus Kyle Lowry) was largely poor.
The Raptors started the game slow, missing shots (started 1-for-10 from the field) and being a step slow collecting loose balls. I counted at least four Knicks’ dunks in the first quarter which is not ideal.
