Gregor Chisholm: Raptors get ready for the road with a win over the Knicks
are about to embark on arguably their most difficult road trip of the season. Seven games in 12 nights, almost all against formidable Western Conference opponents, where nothing will come easy.
A loss to the division rival would have made the upcoming flight to Sacramento a painful experience and the journey ahead even more arduous. But the Raptors will instead be hitting the road in good spirits on the heels of a solid win that saw them jump out to a commanding early lead before withstanding several runs.
The Raptors entered Sunday at a disadvantage. They were playing the second night of a back-to-back and their fifth game in seven days. After losing to the Boston Celtics by two on Saturday, they figured to be in tough against a rested Knicks team that was desperate to a snap a three-game skid.
