Raptors knock off Knicks by playing the long game

There is sure to be chatter about who should start for the Raptors and who should come off the bench — which groups of two or three should always play together and which nine, 10 or 11 players should comprise “the rotation” — because it’s human nature to think another way might be a better way.

But that’s all noise right now. It will all work itself out in due course, and no one should expect definitive answers in a week or two weeks or even a month.

Right now, the team finally has a lot of very good players healthy at the same time, and forgive coach Nick Nurse for not wanting to rush into any firm decisions.
