In a nail-biting Game 4 showdown between the New York Knicks and the Detroit Pistons, controversy arose on the final play as officials missed a crucial foul call on Detroit's Tim Hardaway Jr. The Knicks narrowly escaped with a 94-93 victory, taking a commanding 3-1 series lead. Despite the missed call, the Pistons put up a fierce fight, led by Cade Cunningham's impressive triple-double performance, but ultimately fell short in the closing moments.
The Knicks relied on their dynamic duo of Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns to secure the win, with Brunson's clutch scoring in the fourth quarter proving pivotal. Despite Cunningham's stellar play for the Pistons, the Knicks managed to hold on and now have a chance to clinch the series at home in Game 5. The dramatic finish and contentious no-call only added to the intensity of this hard-fought playoff battle between these Eastern Conference foes.
