The New York Knicks were benefactors of four blown calls made by the officiating crew in their 104-101 win in Game 2 of their first-round series against the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night.
Per Jack Baer of Yahoo Sports, the final two-minute report after the game stated that Tyrese Maxey was fouled twice on his drive off an inbounds pass with 27 seconds left in regulation. Here’s what the league said about both fouls:
“Brunson (NYK) pulls Maxey’s (PHI) jersey away from his body, which affects Maxey’s ability to secure the pass. Hart (NYK) steps forward into Maxey’s (PHI) space and initiates lower body contact that causes Maxey to lose his balance and fall to the floor.”
Brunson’s tug on Maxey’s jersey was slight and not the easiest infraction to spot with the naked eye, but Hart did make contact with the 2024 All-Star which led to him hitting the ground.
