“Support was fine from the start because we talked about it and explained what happened or did not happen.” Before the Knicks-Raptors game, Rajakovic told the media, “I know who I am, I know my integrity, and I know who I represent.” “I represent one incredible organization, as well as people in the front office and players.” I’m eager for all of this to be resolved and for everyone to learn the truth. “I have nothing to be concerned about.”

Rookie coach Rajakovic and other Raptors personnel have been accused of stealing a large amount of proprietary information from the Knicks franchise, including thousands of video files.

A former Knicks employee named Ike Azotam was hired by Toronto and is accused of stealing all of the files and information.

New York alleges that Rajakovic, in particular, “conspired to use Azotam’s position as a current Knicks insider to funnel proprietary information to the Raptors to help them organize, plan, and structure the new coaching and video operations staff.”

Perhaps Toronto hasn’t had a chance to review the files yet, as they were defeated by New York 119-106 on Friday night.

According to The Post, Azotam did not appear to have burned every bridge at the Knicks, as he was seen hugging a staff member before the two teams met.

The suit was filed in August and is still pending, as the Raptors seek to have it dismissed.
