Game Thread: New York Knicks vs Orlando Magic 1/18/2021 12:00 [Game #15]

IQ missed a 3. Their defense is swarming now. Gordon to shoot 2 to cut lead to 3.

You know it?s coming but you are helpless to stop it. All goes back to Thibbs leaving Rivers in too long.

71-68
 
EP has shot block. ORL goes for tie but misses it. But Bullock pulls up with 23 seconds on clock and bricks another 3...

5-26....

This is ugly, unwatchable hoops.
ORL will win this game if they hit their shots. We can?t score and only want to
Shoot the 3.
 
Vucevic makes it a 1 point game. He?s best player on the floor, so advantage ORL down the stretch.

Gordon ties it with a 3. AG the second best player.

Ever since that awful pass on a 2:1 break, lead went from potentially being 17 to tie game in a flash.
 
Mitch is fouled but he?ll miss 1 or both. ORL has the fresh legs and have 2 guys who can score easily.

This is a brutal loss about to happen.

Mitch missed both...

NY started 10-11 from the FT line then went 5-13.

RJ feeds Mitch but his dunk is blocked.
 
Gordon drives to the hoop. Hits RJ with an obvious offball arm shove... the same thing they called on RJ, which negated a bucket. No call here, of course. Home cooking officiating... where is it?

ORL keeps possession on a jump
Ball as a result of blown call, and with 2 second left on the shot clock... Ross makes a heave 3.

Then Randle missed a FT.

Tie game. NYK ball. 1 minute left.
 
ISO Randle after timeout gives NYK an 83-81 lead. 56 seconds remain.
Don?t allow a 3!!!!
Can ORL miss a shot and we hit some FTs?

ORL led 9-6 and 81-80... that?s it so far today.

AG turnover. RJ tough finish!!!!
 
Mitchell forces a miss. Jump ball. Cole and Randle. But Anthony jumped on Julius and hurt him... Thibbs is furious. Randle Ok....

Knicks gain the tap. ORL fouls. 85-81. 27.6 seconds left. Bullock to shoot 2...
 
Randle finished it... Vucevic and Gordon didn?t. RJ plays well beyond his years. He will be a stud in 3 years. Like a AI or Dray Green type team player.
 
Defense was great down the stretch! Poor shooting all around but RJ and IQ looked great. So does OBi T for that matter and Peyton had a monster dunk. Nice all around game!
