Dec. 27. the Knicks beat the Detroit Pistons in a triple overtime classic. Though tonight they lost 91-83, the fact that the game was tied with just 4:07 to go may have been an equally amazing accomplishment.
Consider that 50-27 Detroit is the best team in the East and lines up with five NBA All Stars. Then consider that the Knicks were missing four of their top five scorers plus rampaging rookie energizer Renaldo Balkman (stomach virus) who’s pretty much been their most indispensable player of late.
“Our margin of error is very slim,” Coach Isiah Thomas said. “The little things add up in a course of a game end up giving the other team two or three extra points. Those type of things end up hurting you in the long run. That being said, we were playing against a very good team in Detroit. When it came down to the last three minutes of the game we saw exactly how good they are.”
