In a fiercely contested playoff series, the New York Knicks seized a 3-1 lead over the Detroit Pistons with a nail-biting, last-second victory. The Pistons' head coach, J.B. Bickerstaff, faced criticism after a crucial decision in Game 3 cost his team a pivotal challenge opportunity, resulting in a controversial non-call on a potential game-winning shot by Tim Hardaway Jr. Fans expressed their backlash on social media, labeling Bickerstaff as one of the worst playoff coaches in the league. Despite leading the team to a notable 44-38 regular-season record and being a finalist for NBA Coach of the Year, Bickerstaff's decisions during the pressure of the playoffs are now under scrutiny.
