The final few seconds of the Game 3 battle between the New York Knicks and the Detroit Pistons were anything but typical. Karl Anthony-Towns felt good enough after his team’s victory to crack a joke after the Pistons landed in a favorable situation as they grew desperate.

The New York Knicks left no doubt about their plan for Game 3 in the opening minutes against the Detroit Pistons.
