The New York Knicks suffered an ugly loss at the hands of the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday night by the score of 125-91. There were very few highlights for the Knicks, but one of them was an accidental soccer-style pass by Iman Shumpert to Steve Novak.
It happened in the fourth quarter (after most Knicks fans had probably turned the game off). Shumpert stumbled when trying to dribble around the Pacers defender and kicked the ball backwards across the court into the hands of Novak. It ended up being the perfect assist as Novak converted the three-point shot.
Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.
