Got that homecourt advantage back.

What the heck. Shouldn’t that have been a jump ball? There’s no possession arrow in the NBA!

Good news, this was an important counterpunch.

Nice win.

Bridges missed OG wide open under the basket (or a dunk or dribble out) during the inbounds with 3 seconds left, leading to the craziness.

Nice team effort.

Whats up with OG's shoulder. Dont know if you guys so it hanging with about 1 min left. Looked like dislocation. He got massaged on the sideline

Was on the pass to Brunson when he went coast to coast

For whoever said we didn't need to make a deadline move. How would Schroeder type look on the Knicks? 7 second half assists, Pistons played the same that half, we just have not played well in the 3rd and some 4th quarters. Why not take it to Duren with 5 FOULS? Just dumb coaching, again.

BENCH outscored 40 to 9. With refs punking us and no bench, this is not much different than last year. Not deep enough to be a contender.

VDesai @ 4/24/2025 10:17 PM

Play of the season here, but notice OG appears hurt?

Duren not fouling out saved the game. He made 2 bonehead turnovers that cost them

NYStateOfMind @ 4/24/2025 10:26 PM
I disagree, he made big putbacks and dunks. Get him off the court and it opens it up more for KAT and everyone at the rim. Also, Duren in the game opens up their 3s.

He didn't once he got 5 fouls and Reed was killing us even more. And also Jalen literally takes it right to him on the play posted above.

Sorry that was Tim. But the Duren tip out of bounds was pivotal. And then when the refs handed them a chance he throws it over Cades head

Chandler @ 4/24/2025 10:37 PM
Super happy we won but we need to move the ball more. I was glad to see us run more and our rebounding was better but not where we need it to be.

Pistons are daring the refs to blow the whistle and they’re not a lot of grabbing and bumping

Missed it (wasn't watching it at home and couldn't go back). will need to find a replay - no one's talking about it... OG interview coming up. Let's see if its iced up.

VDesai @ 4/24/2025 10:55 PM
Clearly we need to play faster somehow. The issue was when we slowed down the offense. How do we give Brunson support and get the ball up quick on every posession?
