The Toronto Raptors take on the New York Knicks for the fourth time this season on Tuesday night -- is this the night the Raptors snap their 11-game losing streak against New York? In Episode 2052, Sean Woodley and Vivek Jacob talk about tonight's tilt with the Knicks, who their preferred Raptors first-round matchup would be between New York and the Cleveland Cavaliers, which teams below them are most likely to catch Toronto in the standings, and their ideal East playoff bracket. Off the top, Sean and Vivek dig into the matchup details of their game with New York, where the Raptors have left some low hanging fruit on the tree in previous meetings this season, why the absence of Collin Murray-Boyles changes the shape of the matchup, and why having Immanuel Quickley and Jakob Poeltl both in good form gives them a chance to target Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns on defense in a way they haven't in the first three meetings this year. Next, Sean and Vivek chat about whether they'd prefer to see the Cavaliers or the Knicks in a theoretical 4/5 matchup in the first round. Lastly, they take stock of the race for the 6th seed developing below the Raptors, and which of the 76ers, Magic, Heat, Hornets and Hawks stand the best chance of catching the Raptors in the standings.
