The New York Knicks and Cleveland Cavaliers' Eastern Conference Playoffs Game 2 on Tuesday wasn't very competitive.
The Cavaliers drew away to level the series at 1-1, but star center Jarrett Allen kept going until the finish, resulting in a contentious foul on Knicks standout Julius Randle.
With 2:22 left in the fourth quarter and a 23-point lead, Cleveland had won. Allen tried to block a Randle dunk, possibly too forcefully.
Knicks steal gave Randle a pass. He was severely undercut by Allen as he went up for the dunk, landing precariously on his back.
Allen was called for a Flagrant 1 foul, but Randle stayed down for a while after the hazardous foul.
Randle stayed in to take the free throw after the dunk. After the free throw, he was substituted and sent to the locker room.
Allen's foul may have been dirty. Julius Randle should be ready for Game 3 on Friday.
