The New York Knicks entered the fourth quarter Saturday night trailing the Detroit Pistons by eight points and in real danger of surrendering homecourt advantage in their Eastern Conference playoff series. But reserve guard Cam Payne turned up his intensity on the opening inbound play of the final period, causing the Pistons to commit a five-second violation, which proved to be the turning point of the game. New York outscored Detroit 40-21 over the final 12 minutes en route to a 123-112 victory — a stretch that included an incredible 21-0 Knicks' run.
