Mikal Bridges played 41 minutes Wednesday night in Portland, and he wouldn't want to give one of those seconds back because he did this during the final play of the game. Still, 41 minutes is a lot, and it's not just this game.

Things started awkwardly between the Knicks starter and coach, and then ended with Bridges hitting the game-winner in overtime vs. Portland.

If there's one thing we know about a Tom Thibodeau-coached team it's that he's going to play his starters a ton of minutes. He's been known to run with short rotations, relying heavily upon his starters to the point where there tends to be criticism about overworking his stars.
