PHEW!

I'm getting too old for this sh!t.

Good morning. How about a brief bonus newsletter to start your Saturday?

Game 12: Knicks 124, Nets 122

• The Knicks allowed a 19-point fourth quarter lead to vanish and trailed by one after a go-ahead Dennis Shroder 3-pointer with 11.5 seconds remaining, only for Jalen Brunson to save their bacon with one of the biggest shots of his career

• Mikal Bridges blocked Shroder’s layup attempt as time expired

• OG Anonoby had an exceptional game but fouled out on an overturned call with 4:15 remaining after earlier being whistled for a foul despite being thrown to the ground by Dorian Finney-Smith

• The refs were a mess

• With Karl-Anthony Towns and Deuce McBride both sidelined, all three rookies played, with Ariel Hukporti being largely effective in 30 minutes at center

• Josh Hart barely missed a triple double

• Cam Thomas was unstoppable for Brooklyn, finishing with 43 points on 22 shots

Nothing like a stress-free Friday evening after a long week.

Coming off of Wednesday’s comeback from 22 down that fell just short against the Bulls, it’s only fitting that the Knicks followed it up with a game in which they nearly blew a 21-point lead themselves.
