8th Ave to 8 Mile. The Official (3) New York Knicks vs (6) Detroit Pistons 2025 First Round Playoffs Thread

[T.he I.nformant]

Great resiliency from the Knicks because I thought they were done when Brunson went out and the Pistons were up 10+

 

[Gotright]

Growing pains. I'm just happy to be excited about playoffs pistons basketball again. It's been so long

nikkaS WON 14 GMS LAST YR.
NOW THEY NEED TO UPGRADE TOBIAS.



​

Both things are true They are actually at the point where they have to figure out ways to get to the next step beyond just being a fringe playoff team.

LMAO

THIS IS A WIDE OPEN FREE THROW.

YOU CANT ASK FOR
A BETTER LOOK THAN THIS
FOR A GAME WINNER

What He got right to his spot and just missed the shot. I'm sure they wanted to go early to rebound or foul to give themselves an opportunity to still get another shot at it. Execution was the issue, not the decision.

That's not wide open at all

You are only down 1. Go to the paint and get a layup/dunk or draw a foul. Even if you miss 1 free throw, you can still to go to overtime

House money is unbeatable. I'll say I can't think of a player I like and hate their game at the same time as much as Brunson's in a long time.

Detroit gon fight hard because that's what young teams do. Same thing gonna happen in the Magic/Boston series but both series most likely ending in 5

You keep talking like that's some type of absolute

That much separation on someone like OG is open

Brunson making this same shot btw

Thought Knicks in 6 and Pistons would lose but kick the knicks ass. Which is whats happening

Knicks are just way more talented than Pistons. Thibs doing terrible coaching job. KAT is literally unguardable when he’s engaged in this series especially with no Stewart. They are going to get blasted by Celtics.

Cade is a superstar. He just needs a running mate. Whether its Zion, KD, Booker. They need to get another star. It turned into Cade vs Brunson/Towns at the end. Cade doesn’t have the best gas tank. He wears out at end of games

They should make the cap space to add Ty Jerome. and then just keep an eye out for a 3&D wing

OG Anunoby is ABSOLUTELY a great defender that still closed the gap when Cade got some separation

He ain't been doing that foul bating shyt too much this series I hate that part of his game but that little nikka a killer

Brunson making this same shot btw

And OG still closed the gap. Ya'll would have a point if they were down 2

Just go to the paint and draw a foul

For the Knicks playoffs hopes I don’t know if it is better if that series is shorter or longer.
