2025 NBA PLAYOFFS East First Round: #3 New York Knicks vs #6 Detroit Pistons (Series tied 1-1)

[vege]

Embarrassing loss. 21-0 run is pathetic.

[Marvel]

Haha Jalen plays like a bitch

[sp6r=underrated]

Why wouldn't you challenge that? Coaches really overvalue timeouts relative to possession

[Chuck Everett]

This was a great game. Knicks turned the screws in the 4th.

[Marvel]

Cade has been bad

[Tracymcgoaty]

Fun game. Knicks showed their playoff experience in the 4Q.

[RB34]

Anyone got the stats on when a team was last called for 3 defensive 3 seconds in a single game?

[Dubnation]

Embarrassing loss. 21-0 run is pathetic.

Reminds me of the '22 finals.

Man, I've only been peeking in from time to time, but from what I've seen, it's looked like the league 100% decided who was going to win this one. Interesting that it's the same lead ref from the last game I watched in which the league picked the winner beforehand.

No they haven't, stop talking nonsense.

Obviously, I could be missing some of the story, but when you see a few calls that are 80%, 95% of the time called a certain way, and they're called the other way, that's usually a good clue.

Remind me of every game of last year's 28 loss streak.

It's pretty clear Detroits the better team. They're going to win this seasons in 6 games. Cade isn't going to be this bad going forward. He should be the best player on the floor. Brunson's game isn't made for the playoffs a big defender like Ausar is going to give him issues.

Yea but are you gonna get that same game from Beasley, Harris & hardaway?? They cared the team this game.

Piston fans get the JB experience in game 1.

This is what your entire playoff experience will be with this guy. 0 offense when the games matter. Nothing but iso ball and bad basketball.

Cavs fans know this all too well.

Tried to warn em, they didn't wanna hear it lolololol

[infinite11285]

Putrid effort in the 4th by the Pistons. I don't believed they executed a single play the entire quarter.

[jokeboy86]

This doesnt bode well for the Rockets who are also a very young team whose in the playoffs for the first time. Thankfully Udoka is a better coach than Bickerstaff.

[Stone]

Great come from behind win for the Knicks. Detroit almost stole one on the road. Looking forward to game two…

This loss had nothing to do Bickerstaff. Our young guys made a ton of dumb mistakes and Duren cant defend a traffic cone

[Clincher]

Duran gives you nothing on offense, he is missing point blank range shots. His defense and rebounding of course are good but how he never developed his offensive game despite being a few years into the league is wild.

Udoka isn't the only difference. The vets on Rockets are the leaders. The young players (Cade) are the leaders for Pistons. That makes a huge difference too.

was about to say. they got discombobulated

[JujitsuFlip]

This loss is on Bickerstaff. There's no way you allow a 21-0 run if you're a coach. Its on you to settle the team down

He's clueless.
