well to be fair it wasn't like he didn't know, nor was it even during the actual play.
They inbounded the ball Robinson heard the buzzer and tossed the ball at the nearest basket ... honestly guys do the ALL THE TIME... the only real reason its getting pub is A)He made it B) D'antoni blew a gasket C) it the Knicks.
Haha the Knicks. Hilarious.

I was at a Celtics game years ago, K.C.Jones was the coach. During a stop in play a ball bounced to him at 1/2 court, he threw it up and made it...the ref, laughing tossed him the ball back, he turned and made the 1/2 court shot again to the other basket.
At which point the only question I have is this: Did the basket count against the team? If not, then the coach has some serious issues to work out..
Hahaha
The only reason it didn't count was because time expired. I assume it would of been two points for the other team otherwise. I remember Ricky Davis doing this a few years back because he was 1 rebound short of a triple double. So he shot at the wrong basket and thought he would get credit for the rebound. Didn't work though I think he got called for a technical or something like that.
Someone said yesterday that it wouldn't have counted because it's illegal to shoot at the other team's basket.
