This Pistons team is fun. I still don't want them to advance lol.

I wouldn’t be surprised but it would be hysterical if NY lost this 1st round series. They trade away 51 1st round picks for Bridges and Towns only to get knocked out by a young Pistons team. :lol:

Knick fans love their new shiny things.

If there were stricter rules against flopping, Brunson would be a scrub.

Detroit playing dumb to end the 2nd qtr.

NY with double digit lead.

Detroit not yet ready to win a series.

Cade is 5-13 from 2pt range.

The rest of his team is 1-10. WTF?

Young Pistons team mastering the Art of the Fake Comeback.

Super impressed with the Grizzlies who have a lead against OKC.

Seeing JA go down On what seemed like a semi dirty dangerous play, While possibly being severely injured, Is why Boston needs to take care of their business to get past Orlando quickly..

At the time of the injury Memphis is winning by 29 but now possibly losing JA for the rest of this game at least.

Quite interesting Is an understatement.

Clips look good.

OKC will have trouble against them if Kawhi is healthy.

OKC tied it up

How was that not a Flagrant 1 at least on Dort? He hit a helpless player in the air. He slipped? So what. He slipped making an overly aggressive attempt to defend 2 players. Gross.

Oklahoma City would make quick work out of the clippers. Looks like they could be headed to the western conference finals .

It looked incidental to me? Ja tried to jump over the guy and Dort barely had time to figure out what was going on let alone react. He was slipping backward as it happened.

I don’t think so. That’s another bad matchup. I think the thunder win that series with no problems. They handled the clippers pretty good.

So you saw an actual play on the ball and not a last ditch effort to the body? It's ok as long as you "slip" under the helpless player that's in the air? That could be useful going forward.

Not surprised OKC came all the way back from trailing by 29 points.

Memphis letting a rookie and an undrafted player play heavy minutes in the playoffs will not end well.

SGA 24/68 so far this series

We all know damn well Tatum would be copping it if he shot like that against the 8th seed.
