Down one with the game on the line, it was Derrick Rose's time to shine.
The New York Knicks point guard blew past two Atlanta Hawks defenders on a drive. He couldn't get past the third, though, as Paul Millsap met him at the rim and blocked his shot, effectively securing the Hawks' 108-107 victory.
On the previous possession, Dennis Schroder drilled a 3-pointer to give his club the lead.
