He has been guarded by 6 players consistently. And while I don't care much for ticky tack fouls, some of the blatant arm/jersey holds from Batum are a bit obscene.
That's why he's got to make Philly pay for the doubles by finding a wide-open shooter who can bury a three.

I was wondering why they didn’t call a timeout there.
Also wtf was Maxey thinking dribbling to the sideline.
I just went back and watched the last minute 3 more times….he tried calling time out after they threw the ball in and they never got possession

So terrible the Knicks traded Cam Reddish AND a first round pick for him. Bad asset management. Leon Rose sucks!

Loose ball refs are trained not to call the jump ball right away in the NBA - oh and nurse wants to complain about the whistle / for a time out…refs could have called maxey for a travel as he had two hands on the ball while standing up and went down…Lots fo things could have happened lowry all over the arms and that gets overturned **** happens you can’t hope like the sixers. You will it like the knicks.
Maybe attributing the result to a higher being is the only way to explain what went down at the Garden on Monday. Or maybe the Knicks were built for that exact play.
They were built for Brunson to hit big-time shots, even on nights when it doesn’t seem like he’s making any others.
They were built for Hart to tear away steals that shouldn’t be his. After all, Team USA coach Steve Kerr once relayed something his assistant, Erik Spoelstra, said about Hart when Hart was playing for them in the FIBA World Cup: Some players get 50-50 balls, but Hart gets 30-70 ones.
They were built for DiVincenzo to drain 3s aplenty. He just broke the franchise record for most makes in a single season. They were built for him to hesitate naught if a pass swung back to him after a miss.
They were built for Hartenstein to snag those boards, too. The Knicks finished the regular season first in offensive-rebound rate. They were built to create 3-pointers when they recover their misses, too.
....
As Hartenstein dropped to the court, he peered to Anunoby, his first read, stationed in the corner just where Thibodeau would want. It won the Knicks the game when Anunoby flipped the ball to DiVincenzo for the 3.
Thibodeau speaks so often about the importance of preparation, about how building habits in the regular season helps during high-pressure playoff situations. He doesn’t believe in changing day-to-day customs come spring basketball. According to his philosophy, coaches and players should approach any game as if it’s a playoff game.
This is why.
When Hartenstein’s mission overcomes him, when all he can think is to go get the ball, muscle memory takes over.
The Knicks prevailed amid chaos. But the Knicks were built for chaos.

He could've easily pointed to 4 Sixers around the hoop and still letting Hartenstein get the rebound but he chooses to blame the officials.
