Mikal Bridges had to edit himself a bit after getting a little too fired up while speaking to MSG broadcaster Mike Breen after the Knicks’ dramatic 116-113 win over the Pistons to punch New York’s ticket to the second round of the NBA playoffs.

Bridges poured in 25 points — his most of the series — on 11-for-16 shooting from the field along with four rebounds and three assists in the Knicks’ 116-113 Game 6 and series-clinching win over the Pistons on Thursday night at Little Caesars Arena.

Mikal Bridges offered a half-joking, half-serious solution to the Knicks’ second-half woes in their first-round playoff series against the Detroit Pistons. “We gotta maybe do some layup lines or something coming out of halftime — get everybody out there moving,” Bridges said after Tuesday’s 106-103 Game 5 loss at Madison Square Garden.
