Josh Smith: "I didn't get the shot I wanted"

Detroit Pistons forward Josh Smith says that he did not get the shot that he wanted late in the team's defeat to the New York Knicks.

Josh Smith has said that he did not get the shot that he wanted while trying to add a game-winning basket against the New York Knicks.

The forward was the Detroit Pistons' leading scorer in the 89-85 defeat, but missed a jump shot while the team were trailing 86-85 with just under 10 seconds left to play.

The 28-year-old told reporters: "I didn't get the shot I wanted. I'm still beating myself up for that.

"I could've been a little more aggressive and try to put the initiative on the referees to make a call.

"It was a shot that is definitely going to be with me until the next game so I can get it out of my head."

Smith has averaged 15.2 points per game this season.
