Jalen Brunson had an opportunity to win at the end of regulation, but his floater rimmed out. For some reason, people were talking about how this was an easy shot and he somehow blew it, but having to go high over crashing defenders increased the difficulty a great deal.

Brunson had a potential game-winning shot rim out in the final seconds. If it had gone in, New York likely would have claimed a 102-100 win. Instead, it was pushed to overtime where the Knicks would eventually prevail.

The final points of Brunson's 40-point performance carried the weight of a franchise and avoided an alternate universe.
