The Detroit’s Pistons finish their NBA record, the postseason streak of 15 games with a road victory against the New York Knicks in its Playoffs series of the East Conference.
The Detroit Pistons broke their perdeterary streak of 15 NBA playoffs with a 100-94 victory over the New York Knicks to level their first round series of the East Conference in one game each.
Detroit’s gift, Cunningham, scored 33 points and obtained 12 rebounds, and Dennis Schroder added 20 points from the bank, including a three -point advantage with 55.7 seconds remaining, while the Pistons frustrated the demonstration of the quarter room of the Knicks on Monday.
The Pistons, in the playoffs for the first time since 2019, achieved their first victory in the playoffs since game 4 of the final conference ends against the Boston Celtics.
Two days after the Knicks wrote a 21-0 scoring race to meet in game 1, the Pistons were pushed into the goal in a physical encounter and fast pace in Madison Square Garden.
They led by up to 15 in the third quarter, but the Knicks had reduced the deficit to eight in the final period.
The New York star, Jalen Brunson, scored 14 of his 37 points in the room and fed Josh Heart for a overturning that tied it to 94-94 with 1:15 to play.
But Schroder responded immediately, drilling a triple that put the pistons ahead forever.
The Knicks were empty in three consecutive possessions, while Schroder and Jalen become connected in the free throw line to seal Detroit’s victory.
Tobias Harris de Detroit scored 15 points and demolished 13 rebounds, and lasting 12 points and 13 boards.
Mikal Bridges scored 19 for the Knicks when Karl-Anthony Towns and Og Anunoby were retained to 10 each.
“We did what we were supposed to do. And that was all,” said the coach of the Pistons JB BickerStaff, whose team receives game 3 on Thursday. “Winning a game on the way to get home went for what we have been here.
“So we approached it with a commercial mentality, we learned from the fourth quarter the other night. But we did what we were supposed to do.”
