NEW YORK _ For 47 minutes and 58 seconds the New York Knicks looked like all they had to do to survive was to hold off the Charlotte Hornets.
After all, the Hornets arrived after playing in Charlotte the night before and pulling off a last-second victory. Looking the part of the exhausted team they fell behind by as many as 15 points and after coming back looked to fade in the stretch.
But with 2.1 seconds remaining Devonte Graham delivered a three-point field goal, pushing Charlotte in front. And when Julius Randle could not counter on the other end, air balling a desperate shot in the lane, the Knicks fell, 103-102, at Madison Square Garden Saturday night.
