Tatum shooting 3s because he can't get around Brunson is the defining moment of this game.

How the hell do you get to call timeout there???

Brunson and Towns keeps getting burned on defense.

I've said this in other threads so this isn't just me being a knicks fan but you shouldn't be able to call a timeout lying on the court
