Yes the NBA does the best Marketing of any the Big four in North American and playing across the Big Pond is always a slam dunk.The New York Knicks and Washington Wizards did battle in London Town's swank O2 Arena and the Knicks thought they had the "W" as the Wiz Kids D.C. steals one and either way it was going to be a former Indiana Hoosiers Big Man stealing the show!

The New York Knicks started like gang busters as maybe they should move out of World's Most Famous and let the Brooklyn Nets and Johnnies of St. John's hold serve in World's Most Famous. Nonetheless the Knicks busted out to a 63-53 halftime lead only to balloon that to a 89-77 lead after three.

Then here came the Wiz Kids D.C. following their Shooting Guard Bradley Beal as #DCFamily goes on a 24-11 run to close the contest as Beal puts in 9 of his game-high 26 in the 4th behind two money balls and one money ball he shot from Manchester United's Home Digs.

Then it came down to the Wizards up 99-98 only to see Knicks "Big" and former Rip City Blazer and Indian Hoosier Noah Vonleh to gibe Knicks Tape the 100-99 lead on a hook shot with 33.7 seconds remaining.

On the ensuing Wizards possession Beal missed a money ball only top see the Knicks run the clock down to 3.3 and NYK Rookie Kevin Knox missed a money ball Timeout Wiz ids D.C. with 3.3 left on the clock. Beal after the timeout drove and hit former L.A. Lakers and Indiana Hoosiers "Big" Thomas Bryant (pictured right) for a game-winning lay-up with just .3 remaining and the Wizards beat the Knicks at O2 Arena 101-100.

It was Wizards Otto Porter Jr. who had 20 points off that DC Family Bench that was pivotal. The Knicks get a team-high 25 points from Emmanuel Mudiay (11-18 fg) and 33 points from their bench led by Iso Zo dba Allonzo Trier but that wasn't enough. Wizards survived shooting a dismal 36% from the arc and just 70% from the stripe.

Washington now heads back to D.C. at 19-26 while the Knicks stay intact for the second most ping pong balls coming i the 2k19 NBA Draft Lottery...
