NEW YORK — Six seconds.
That was the exact time it took RJ Barrett to grab a rebound and dribble the distance of the court, rim to rim, and deliver the most electric and totally wasted bucket of this Knicks season.
It occurred at the end of regulation, with the Knicks on the brink of collapse. They had allowed the Raptors, a struggling franchise, to recover from a nine-point deficit in the final 5 ½ minutes. Toronto’s Scottie Barnes was at the foul line with a one-point advantage and 6.6 seconds left.
