Felt like that game was the Knicks vs the Spurs and Refs. 8 on 5. They still nearly pulled it off.

Not one to blame refs as every fan base thinks they were against them on any given game but that jump ball infraction was a joke.
Incredible effort by JB. The shots he was hitting was like watching a video game. Crazy to think Melo did that in a little over 3 quarters. Would have been nice to see Deuce hit the 3pt shot to end it.
Playoff pressure type situation . Wemby looks like the real deal.
Heartbreaking loss. I haven't felt this angry and down about a loss since Game 6 in Miami last year. Honestly wished we would stayed down 20 and gotten blown out.
Brunson with the second highest scoring game in Knicks history with 61. On only 6 FT's. Should have had 70. Zebras just do not give him his respect. Wemby, a rookie, had 12 FT's. We had 12 FT's as a team! Too many times Brunson, who scored 30 in the paint alone, got bumped on drives and had no call. Just ridiculous. Don't understand how you take 47 shots and score 30 in the paint and only end up with 6 FT's. Meanwhile you couldn't get physical with Wemby without getting a foul called. I know Wemby will rule the league one day. And soon. The kid is extremely talented and on a proven organization and HC. Kid finished with 40 and 20 and he's only 20 years old. But can he please achieve or earn something first before getting that MJ/Kobe/LeBum whistle?
Mad and annoyed at Deuce for missing the game winning 3. He's been so good from three the last few weeks and had a great look that would have won it.
Tough loss. Next week is gonna be tough. I'm not so concerned about seeding. I just want to avoid Miami. I'm more concerned with getting Randle and OGA back and hoping we don't lose anymore guys before the end of the season.
Ya can be damn sure Brunson gonna remember this

I think when Hartenstein went out it was harder to beat the double. When Hartenstein is on the floor he is the outlet and the distributor. He finds the open man or is open himself. Its way easier to trap and double Brunson when iHart isnt out there
Remember Knicks also missed a lot of point blank range buckets. Mitch missed an alley oop in overtime and came down hobbling. Hart missed an easy putback late 4th.
Lots of makeable plays not made.
Still the foul with 24 seconds left on Wemby was a killer call as it tied the game and Hartenstein fouled out. We looked lost on offense in overtime without iHart.

Wow. What a dick!
I wonder if Wemby was thinking that.
I also wonder if JB would want the ball, considering the loss.
That was also a career night for Wemby. One might think he’d want the ball even more.
Although he’ll probably drop those stats plenty of times in the future.
I also wonder if the fan was asked to cough up the ball afterwards, for a little chedda.
Let's not forget this is supposed to be entertainment and that game from the start of the second half was one of the most entertaining ones I ever saw. I couldn't sit from about 4 minutes into the third. Knicks showed a lot of heart getting back into it.

Few like they should have challenged that charge on IHart. Wemby’s foot was sliding. That took 2points and put iHart on the bench early. Knicks won a similar challenge against Denver early.
