Parece que @NYKnicks van por más en el Torneo Intratemporada (Copa de la Recopa).
Perdían por 18 a inicios del último cuarto ante @MiamiHEAT mientras @TheGarden bostezaba.
Quickley, Barrett y Brunson se pusieron las pilas. Barrett terminó marcando a Jimmy Butler (3-8 en 4C). pic.twitter.com/JqPna9m2IJ – 10:23 PM

Jimmy Butler misses a 3 to win it. Heat lose. Can still have a chance
to win their group with a win Tuesday vs Milwaukee. – 10:13 PM

Final: Knicks 100, Heat 98
Jimmy Butler’s 3-pointer for the win at the buzzer rims out, and the Knicks outscore the Heat 29-11 in the fourth quarter for a stunning come-from-behind victory – one that keeps them alive in the in-season tournament, too.
What a wild game. – 10:13 PM

After 3: Heat 87, Knicks 71
Difference in this game, beyond the 19-0 run Miami had to start the third, is the 25-11 differential in points off turnovers in Miami’s favor.
Jimmy Butler has 21 to lead the Heat, while Jalen Brunson has 16 to lead the Knicks. – 9:39 PM

Tom Thibodeau calls timeout 73 seconds into the third quarter after poor Knicks transition defense leads to a wide-open Kyle Lowry three. Knicks down, 57-51, at the top of the second half. A loss disqualifies NYK from In-Season Tournament knockout round contention. – 9:09 PM

Looked like Jimmy Butler tweaked his right ankle on that layup attempt before the timeout. But after limping up and down the court, it appears he’ll be staying in the game after this Heat timeout. – 8:43 PM

More on this storyline
Anthony Chiang: Why did Jimmy Butler make the trip to Wisconsin to watch the Skyforce last night? Butler: “Niko. Got to go see my boy. I’m a huge Niko fan. I think he’s going to help this organization well after I’m done here. That’s my dawg. I love him to death.” -via Twitter @Anthony_Chiang / November 21, 2023
Brady Hawk: Jimmy Butler with more trolling postgame: “I’m in a 3-point shooting slump right now. So I gotta go to what I know, which is the skyhook.” “I just be out there doing stuff, but I’m more disappointed I’m hurting my team with my 3 point percentage right now.” -via Twitter @BradyHawk305 / November 21, 2023
