It was a stupid stupid call. At the very least, have them jump it again.
https://official.nba.com/rule-no-6-putting-ball-in-play-live-dead-ball/Section VII—Restrictions Governing Jump Balls
Each jumper must have at least one foot on or inside that half of the jumping circle which is farthest from his own basket. Each jumper must have both feet within the restraining circle.
The ball must be tapped by one or both of the players participating in the jump ball after it reaches its highest If the ball falls to the floor without being tapped by at least one of the jumpers, one of the officials off the ball shall whistle the ball dead and signal another toss.
Neither jumper may tap the tossed ball before it reaches its highest point.
Neither jumper may leave his half of the jumping circle until the ball has been
Neither jumper may catch the tossed or tapped ball until it touches one of the eight non-jumpers, the floor, the basket or the backboard.
Neither jumper is permitted to tap the ball more than twice on any jump
The eight non-jumpers will remain outside the restraining circle until the ball has been tapped. Teammates may not occupy adjacent positions around the restraining circle if an opponent desires one of the positions. No player may position himself immediately behind an opponent on the restraining circle.
Penalty for c., d., e., f., g.: Ball awarded out-of-bounds to the opponent.
Player position on the restraining circle is determined by the direction of a player’s basket. The player whose basket is nearest shall have first choice of position, with positions being alternated thereafter.

I don't think an NBA jump ball toss ever gets to its highest point. That never gets called though players cheat every single time.

How can anyone see that stat and not think the game was rigged?
Why would the nba rig such a meaningless game that wasn’t even on national TV?
Outside of the Nova three, we played like crap collectively. Soft on defense and perhaps too reliant on Brunson on offense. We didn’t deserve to win.
you entirely missed the point
being off national TV is exactly the kind of game you'd fix

Outside of Jalen we don't have anyone else that puts any kind of pressure on the rim, usually we get some freethrows off second chances but everyone is afraid to challenge Victor when they get an offensive board, what's normally a strong putback attempt becomes a couple pump fakes and passes out. I think Victor had something to do with our lack of freethrows, also the Spurs pass a lot and attack rotating closeouts, where as we just iso with 1 guy right now.
Also, our centers make it really easy for him to defend the paint, since neither really poses a threat outside the paint. At least IHart can make passes, but Wemby was in drop just waiting for anyone coming off his screens.
When the Knicks get Towns and Donovan Mitchell, these issues will be corrected.

mpharris36 wrote:interesting debate
would you rather a #2 or #3 seed and potentially face Miami or the Sixers (with Embiid back). in the 1st round
or the #4 seed and Orlando or Indy in the first round?
I know that means Boston likely in the 2nd round if we advance. But I feel like Miami/Philly (with embiid back) are much worse matchup then the younger up start teams where I think we can physical them to death.
