    Nate Williams with 8 minutes, 1 rebound and +15

    Must have been an awesome rebound

    If Amen doesn't get the DPOY in his career I will be very disappointed

    Lol Knicks fans are salty AF about the officiating

    They're not wrong, but about time we got on the good end of a game like this.

    Dillon locked him up in the first half and Amen harassed the hell out of him in the 2nd.

    That was a foul. Brunson bumped Holiday’s body mid air. Granted referees don’t often call it at the buzzer. But when they do decide to call it, it’s a legitimate call. I don’t know why Thibs and Brunson were so upset.

    I actually respect Ben Stiller being that engaged in it.

    Singlehandedly brought the Rockets back into the game. He was doing cardio near the Knicks players taking their oxygen away and decreasing their cognitive and athletic performance via asphyxiation leading us to the win.

    It's one of those unspoken no-calls... if it's buzzer-beater and the contact is minor and after the shot, they almost never call a foul. I can understand why they were upset because the written rule isn't the way it's usually enforced.

    If the NBA allowed the officials less stupid judgment calls like this the whole league would be better off. Either call it a foul every time or change the rule.

    No way. That was 100% a foul. Just surprised the refs had the guts to call it. But once they make the call, a challenge can’t overturn it

    Sengun, Jabari, and Brooks, combined to play 111 total minutes and grabbed 15 rebounds total. Amen had 13 rebounds in 38 minutes. Sengun and Jabari got pushed around too much.

    As bad as Sengun was down the stretch I don't think you'll hear much from the 'Gunatics and that's at least 85% of the Jaters right there.

    Udoka trying to get the L for the tanking efforts there at the end.

    What a horrid play call at the buzzer, saved by the Knicks stupidity.

    Amen is amazing.

    Sengun's defense out on the perimeter throughout the entire game doubling Brunson was also amazing. Bad defender though I hear.

    Jabari, really takes some bad shots which is always because he hasn't got a shot up in a while so feels the need to take one. A

    Brooks with a huge offensive 4th quarter.

    Had to do a side eye at the refs down the stretch, 3 travels on the Rockets but in winning time it looked like the Knicks did a mirror image at least twice with no call.

    Oh look. A good game last time followed up by a rubbish game today? I wish I was shocked but par for the course.
