Knicks fail to close out Pistons in painful Game 5 loss at MSG

The lasting image of Tuesday night will be Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart, the Knicks’ two clutch holdovers from recent postseason runs, waiting at the scorer’s table for a whistle that never came.   Their absence doomed the Knicks, who blew a chance to end this best-of-seven, opening-round series with a shoddy performance in a 106-103 defeat to the gritty Pistons at the Garden.   Instead of getting rest ahead of the Eastern Conference semifinals, they will have to head back to Detroit for Game 6 Thursday night.
