Yesterday’s news cycle for the New York Knicks was perhaps the weirdest of the entire 2020s. Since Leon Rose and Tom Thibodeau joined the franchise in 2020, it’s been a tight-lipped organization with little drama.

Mikal Bridges walk-off game-winner propelled the Knicks to a 114-113 overtime victory on the road against the Portland Trail Blazers late Wednesday night.

The call was so rare that broadcaster Mike Breen said on the air that he had never seen it at the end of a game in 33 years. The Blazers took advantage. While Mitchell Robinson blocked Deni Avdija on his go-ahead layup attempt, Avdija secured the rebound, made the putback and got fouled in the process.
