The New York Knicks filed a protest with the NBA to dispute the 105-103 loss to the Houston Rockets on Monday night, sources told ESPN.
The Knicks decided to file on Tuesday evening, highlighting the NBA's Last Two Minute Report and game crew chief Ed Malloy's acknowledgements that the foul call on Knicks guard Jalen Brunson against Houston's Aaron Holiday inside the final second was incorrectly called, sources said.
Holiday made two free throws with less than a second left on the clock, and intentionally missed a third to run out the clock in the 105-103 victory.
