It was a tragic day for New York Knicks fans last night, as they saw their All-Star forward Kristaps Porzingis go out for the season with an ACL tear. The Madison Square Garden crowd was so devastated you could hear a pin drop.
To add insult to literal injury, Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks put on a show in the world’s most famous arena. Last year at MSG he hit a walk-off buzzer-beater jumper. This year, he decided to wow Knicks fans by jumping over one of their players to catch an alley-oop dunk.
Oh, and it wasn’t 6′ Trey Burke over whom the “Greek Freak” hurdled—it was 6’6″ Tim Hardaway Jr.
If you thought that was bad, try watching this angle in slow motion from a suffering fan’s perspective:
Ouch.
