It is understandable that Alec Burks' opportunities would come in the fourth quarter. As a part of the Knicks' bench unit his minutes come mainly in the second and fourth quarters when the starters are resting.
But there is still the unique part of his game that he just seems to save his best for last, helping provide the Knicks with a much-needed offensive contribution as they attempt to pull out games down the stretch.
