Toronto

While the New York Knicks credited Carmelo Anthony’s leadership, the Toronto Raptors had questions about his foot — specifically whether it was out of bounds on a pivotal play in the game.

The referees instead called Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry for a foul on Lance Thomas, the recipient of Anthony’s subsequent pass with the Knicks leading by one. Thomas converted both free throws with 17.2 seconds remaining and the Knicks held on to hand the Raptors their first home loss of the season, 111-109 on Tuesday night.

I don’t want to see it, I’m getting out of here,” he said. “Ain’t no need for me to look back and watch it, it’s over with. I don’t even know if I did it. Probably, but we’re getting out of here with the win

While Raptors coach Dwane Casey said he saw the Knicks star step out of bounds with his own eyes, Toronto forward DeMar DeRozan, who scored a season-high 29 points in the loss, said the Raptors should still have pulled out the victory.

  • Having a sense of awareness about the game.
  • I believe a player with a strong mind has an advantage over any player, and if that player can put the rest together, they have the chance to become great.
  • One quality that makes a basketball player great is passion because if you are passionate about the sport then you will go to any length to be successful.

Tip-ins

Knicks: G Arron Afflalo (left hamstring) remained out, though is expected to make his season debut soon.

Raptors: DeRozan reached the 15-point mark for the eighth straight game to start the season, the first Raptor since Chris Bosh in 2009-10 to accomplish the feat. … Toronto is 2-1 at home and will not play consecutive home games until Dec. 3-5, the latest in a season that the team has had to wait to play back-to-back games in front of its own fans. … F DeMarre Carroll (right heel) missed his second straight game and F Terrence Ross (left thumb) was also unavailable.
