The New York Knicks narrowly beat the Detroit Pistons on Sunday afternoon, winning Game 4, 94–93, to take a 3–1 series lead. The final possession of the tight contest did not come without controversy, either.
The Pistons had the ball with 11 seconds to go, but Cade Cunningham missed a go-ahead jumper. A scramble for the loose ball resulted in Tim Hardaway Jr. trying a last-second three-point attempt from the corner for the win, but he missed and no foul was called despite significant contact. The Detroit crowd was furious— but not nearly as much as coach J.B. Bickerstaff, who charged onto the court screaming for a foul after the buzzer sounded.
