4-24-25 New York Knicks vs Detroit Pistons Game 3 Audio | NBA PLAYOFFS LIVE Gamecast & Chat

everybody was on the boards uh we limit their second chance opportunities uh and when you do that it just becomes harder and harder to score but I just think our guys uh they were dialed in uh and they were ready to go out and execute well one guy who had quite the task was Tobias Harris and uh just how good was he he’s awesome uh you know not only his one-on-one defense against one of the best big guys in our league uh but his rebounding and understanding just how important that was going to be uh and his ability to play in the trenches i thought he was great um you know defensive rebounds like through bodies being physical uh and then offensively he always gives us that punch when we need a basket you know he can put the ball in his hands he can go and create for you but I think uh he had a great uh game too i think it was well-rounded and impactful it it was an interesting game for Kade in that he he got double figures in rebounds his rebounding picked back up assist total down a little bit uh just overall outside of his scoring what else uh did you notice about him i mean he was aggressive and he was aggressive from the start to set the tone uh and I think he read the game well uh you know previous game they were trapping him more they were more aggressive uh there wasn’t a lot of space for him to beat his guy uh but I thought in game two you know the screens were a little bit better they were a little bit quicker they were higher on the floor and that gave him opportunities to get downhill and be aggressive offensively so it’ll be interesting to see what decision they make tonight uh how aggressive they want to be with him and then he’s you know he’s capable and will find his teammates when they’re in those situations so hopefully we’re playing advantage basketball well Towns only had three field goal attempts in the entire second half uh I assume you expect a little more from him tonight yeah we expect him to come out being aggressive uh you know we understand how good he is and how impactful he can be uh and for them to win he has to have a good night and so uh you know we expect him whether it’s more postups more pick and roll where he’s picking and popping and trying to create more threes uh but we expect him to come out um be aggressive uh we’ll come out and be aggressive against him you know we’ll be physical we’ll hit him uh we’ll hold him up you know we’ll bring him extra bodies to make sure that he doesn’t get off final thing what do you expect out of Brunson i mean he he got to the free throw line as did Kade uh what do you expect tonight more aggressive play by him yeah I mean it’s it’s hard to be more aggressive u but you know you listen to it and they’re talking about getting off to great starts uh and he’s one of the guys that can help him get off to a great start so again we expect him to come out trying to be fired up they want to play a little faster so them trying to push the ball more create some easier opportunities for themselves uh but what this is going to come down to is us uh our start’s going to be important you know we want to use the crowd as motivation but not let it be our only motivation uh and we want to go out we want to compete our tails off have some fun and enjoy the moment all right enjoy it all right we’ll do JB Picker Staff and that’s our coach’s quarter Pistons and

versus Knicks as we ship to the city of Detroit and things are knotted up at one game a piece the team is here past the regular season for the first time in 6 years and as always Mark Champion and Rick Mahorn will be on the call so let’s bring in the voices of the Pistons ahead of the action and boys it is great to have NBA playoff basketball back in Detroit yes it is and I’ll tell you it’s been a long time coming and the city is excited electrified i mean listening to the fans it’s just nice to hear that hum around the world you sound a little bit like Walt Frasier i do well you know I I learned from the best old school that’s right now this is great the building uh there’s white t-shirts on every seat and it makes the building extremely bright so uh they were already cranked it up a little bit when the team came out for the first time yeah I think the shirts say back to work that’s the uh the mantra of the playoffs it would seem i think it’s we can expect it to be pretty loud with these fans who have been waiting a long time for this again boys yes and and I just think it’s it’s just fun man but the biggest thing is to win this game yeah you know a win on the road pretty massive step toward the ultimate goal of actually maybe you know winning the series and doing it in the city of New York at Madison Square Garden i mean that’s nothing short of impressive I would say well yeah it is i mean it’s it’s a great building uh I I keep you know you have to kind of remind yourself they haven’t won a a championship since 73 but that that building is uh electrifying no matter what their record is and and and I’m anxious to see how this building is first time we’ve had this sort of thing here and so we’ll see how I I I have a feeling that our fans are going to respond you know we do have some uh injury news isaiah Stewart is out again with his knee injury just like on Monday just curious uh you know what you think of the job the front court did to try to step up in his absence from the last game it was all about rebounding you know when you can rebound the basketball and not let the Knicks get second chance opportunities those are the things just can’t be turning the ball over and giving the Knicks you know just some free baskets but I’ll tell you the way that they played and doesn’t matter if it’s Paul Reed Isaiah Stewart they coming in there with the intensity and that and having a Paul Reed in there that’s also experience yeah plus 14 in rebounding that was terrific i tell you the guy who really stood out in the rebound department was Tobias Harris i mean he he had quite the challenge of trying to uh keep towns from backing him down into the paint yes he did yeah we had those double doubles in the box score it was good to see you know guys stepping up and doing what they had to do but you know game one they had the lead going into the fourth quarter which eventually went away and they said they wanted to learn a lesson from it now the same thing happened on Monday New York tying it late but this time the boys were able to get that victory it felt like it could have gone the same way again but the most important thing is they didn’t so would you say that they learned that lesson or would you say they still have something to figure out even though they did indeed win that game each team you know each game has its own kind of uh feeling for it and you got to figure out what is New York going to do are they going to double team Kade or they just going to make sure that he’s isolated with a with OG and Nobi or they may do just just have it one-on-one who knows but the each each game has its own type of uh scenario yeah very much so and I I thought you know when Dennis Shruder hit that three to make it 9794 I mean that was the difference maker right there i never really had the feeling in that game that there was any 21- nothing Knicks run coming out of it pistons played much better defense and and uh so just as Rick said it it just had a different atmosphere how about Dennis Shruder by the way that that game felt like the exact reason that they brought him onto this team didn’t it yeah I tell you Dennis Shruder is a guy who’s been experienced but also he’s a common influence when you know you have Kade out there as well you have another ball handler that can move the ball just as good as Kade and that K you know instead of Kade having that responsibility of dishing he’s the one that’s going to be the receiver yeah you could read that because he only had three assists but 12 rebounds Kate Cunningham and and so it was a little different feel he had other guys helping him out all right boys we’ll await your call coming up shortly here we’ll send it back to you in just a minute all right all right tip off is coming up in about 10 minutes i’ll talk to you at halftime you’re listening to the Pistons Radio Network the Detroit Pistons tonight pregame show on the Detroit Pistons Radio Network now let’s pause 10 seconds for station identification on the Pistons Basketball the best in-depth basketball talk every weekday is give and go with Worldwide Wobb Rob Perez and Antonio Daniels from 1 to 4 p.m eastern on NBA Radio Channel 86 we’re going to do this together i’ve got a lot of hard work ahead of us but it’s going to be fun i want to do it with high character hardworking competitive people with a Detroit Pistons mindset first and when we win we’re going to feel joy and I want everybody in this building when we lose to feel pain this is Detroit Pistons basketball thompson with a steel down the lane durling in for the dunk bellingham takes a jump shot over Bridges and hits it oh that’s a big time bucker there easily in the corner oh right in front of the Philly bench and he hits a three here are my champion and Rick Mahorn and good evening welcome to game three of this Eastern Conference opening round playoff series the Detroit Pistons welcome in the New York Knicks it’s all even one after a spectacular Piston victory maybe their best defense in quite some time beat the Knicks 100- 94 rick Mahorn knicks Pistons hey what more could you ask for yeah this is what you look for and in the playoffs three versus six this is one of the most compelling ones I ever seen it could go either way the pendulum can go either way well how about Carl Anthony Towns taking three shots the entire second half didn’t even take a shot in the fourth quarter well I could see Brunson was really trying to get his game on which he did have it on but you got to get everybody involved and that’s what Kate Cunningham and Freder did for the Pistons they they move the basketball and then Tobias Harris is getting his points and everybody’s enjoying sharing the ball well Cade looked like he when he came out and got going early it looked like he he was playing with a purpose and he was wanting to uh you know make a statement in that game yeah and and that’s the thing you you won three out of four quarters in the first game but yet you you lose on a 21 z run but now you just got to come back and play but it’s not going to be an easy trip oh no knicks uh weren’t real happy about it i know Tom Thibido was barking about the free throws disparity but when you look at it Kate Cunningham in two games has attempted 17 free throws jaylen Brunson in two games has attempted 21 and in game number two Brunson attempted 11 free throws cade attempted 12 so I’m not sure what all the barkings are they they going to fuss about fouls and and looking at I love the physicality of the playoffs period and this is just when everybody’s been doing it well the fans are feeling it this will be a full building it’ll be loud and hopefully the Pistons get off to a quick start and have a great chance to go up 2-1 in this best of seven series so when we come back we’ll have the starting lineups injury updates and all the other information you need on the Pistons Radio

and Nick Booker 13 playoff games in his 15th season and he is the umpire rodney Mott is the alternate back in Saucus rick Bardicki and Tyler Ford now Rick’s keys of the game presented by StockX as this building is loud man I tell you right now if you ride the wave of what this crowd is about to give you you can guarantee a win but I can tell you right now don’t get caught up in the hype cuz the Knicks are the same they know desperation time they don’t want to go down 2-1 but Piston’s got to rebound the ball like they did last game and also don’t turn the ball over turnovers have always been turned the ball over and that’s always been your Achilles heel and they he started this I don’t know when regular season was good but last game two they gave up 19 points which is a lot but a little bit better than uh than game one so we are set to go here Caesar’s Arena Pistons will be in the white uniforms trimmed in red and blue and the New York Knicks in the blue uniforms trimmed in orange oh by the way oh what i have a message to send you what’s that pat Euing said hello oh okay and that he was going to do something for you when he sees you oh please i want him to go home i want him to go fishing that’s what I’m looking forward to seeing seeing some Nick soup oh how great is it Rick to look out and see a full house here at Little Season and drowning out the opposing fans cuz the Knicks fans they travel hard too but yes they do lord it’s just nice to see this and reminds you a lot of the old days talking to Allan Houston who is front office with the New York Knicks and he said “Man it’s nice to have Pistons back in the playoff but he’s a Nick i don’t I don’t remember him being a Piston.” Okay he’s a Nick he’s been there longer all right so here we go game three game four will be Sunday that’ll be a 1:00 game and that’s a quick turnaround yeah very much so i think it’s important for the Pistons to get off to a good start here not let the Knicks take away all the [Music] energy and it’ll be interesting to watch Carl Anthony Towns because he was very passive in game two he said only took three shots the entire second half he’s only one of five from three-point range but that’s the that’s the Tobias Harris theory you’re going to try to score you got to score taking it to the basket [Music] we are set to go here in downtown Detroit towns and Duran to jump it [Music] up and the tap is slapped around and Kate Cunningham has it pistons going left to right cade with a highlighter yellow shoes they are bright sends it over to Hardaway duran back to Tim and he missed from the baseline rebound muel Bridges hardway’s been struggling with his shot lately bridges up the right wing topside town didn’t waste any time shoots a three no good and Cunningham comes away with it kate up the right wing picked up by Anovi slide it over to Harris and he’ll take the mid-range jumper that rolls off duran tried to put it back with one hand and good he had that in his hand josh Hart with a rebound ahead to Brunson fans are showing their love for Jaylen Brunson left off to Hart swing it over to Bridges bridges for three and it’s good can’t leave him open he’s a good shooter yes he is you’re rotating over to Brunson a lot of times you got to let a man check them he had 27 against the Pistons back on the 13th of January hit six triples so Knicks first on the board cunningham around the screen bottled up trapped on a double team finds help with Duran duran to the basket had it knocked away 3.8 seconds on the shot clock so the Knicks we know they play defense but so do the Pistons who had an outstanding game too 3.8 on the shot clock 1049 to go in the period cunningham right corner harris short on the three josh Hart with a rebound he’s a great rebounding guard across the timeline coming right to left and now Towns up top trying to barrel in tangled up fans wanted to travel he missed the shot harris saves it to Cunningham now Thompson up the left wing three nothing New York thompson into Anobi and that’s going to be a foul on OG Anobi kyle Anthony Towns is yelling at Shawn Wright thought he had a foul on the other end got to play through it knicks have been talking about it all week about what they felt was foul discrepancy especially with Brunson but I don’t get it the thing is you know they’re trying to jockey for position thompson at the line and missed it he’s struggling had to just take a big deep breath i’m sorry fouled out of the game the other night and was very frustrated trying to keep up with Jaylen Brunson that’s a hard job yes it is second free throw on the weight court pistons on the board it’s 3-1 New York just underway brunson with it guarded by Thompson brings it across the timeline up top it goes Towns to Hart swing it over to Brunson in the right wing fans booing every time he touches the ball we got all sorts we have early action tim Hardaway Jr carl Anthony Towns now Dur getting into it oh yeah this sort of this playoff basketball i don’t like you you don’t like me going to call Harris for a foul it’s like a wrestling match right now that’s probably why we have the crew we have here tonight and Tim Hardway Jr getting into it yes sir he’s got his playoff face on and it goes to Muel Bridges back to Brunson 3-1 New York brunson way up top no good durham with a strong rebound 108 to go in the period cunningham with the basketball kade trying to go down the lane now fadeaway shot off the front no good and controlled by Brunson ahead to Josh Hart right sideline anobi short on a three and they get the offensive rebound as Bridges sends it up top to Towns look out down the lane he comes and is fouled that’s a good foul by Durham make them earlier at the free throw line pistons trying to get that first shot to go down they’re 0 for six knicks are one for five and those nerves they’ll calm down as soon as you know gets them going [Applause] the uh barking out at something he’s upset about Oh medical JB is really upset so a 30se second uh got a bloody nose sar Thompson well he got hit earlier with a pick jb is a little upset zack Zar trying to calm him down oh we are off and rolling rick Morn 947 to go 3-1 Knicks game three and you got a coach like JB Bickerstep and also Tibs these two are very feisty guys very much so all right so he attended to a brother had a scary moment last night towns at the line and hits a 4-1 New York lead i’m got mix fans sitting behind me screaming average 24 quiet against the Pistons in the regular season and it’s pair so it’s a 5-1 New York lead Cunningham with the basketball has only taken one shot so far and an Obi on it kade with a lob over the top to Harris he’s covered up by Hart and Anobi pulls it back out right sideline now attacks gets a shot over Anobi but can’t make it bringes with a rebound pistons just can’t make a shot over seven here’s Hart to Towns who steps into one and hits a three and a quick timeout 8-1 New York pistons just need a layup a dunk something to settle this thing down you can just see the nerves so 9:21 to go in the opening period it’s 8-1 Nicks on the Pistons Radio Network at Corewell Health we

second half well they looking to get him jump started like game one but the two you know Piston’s nerves and jitters sometimes have effect this a good timeout right now for JB Vicker Staff he only down eight and one so It’s real early the two stars Brunson has taken one shot and missed it cunningham’s taken one shot and missed it 0 for seven Detroit two for six for New York and both of them are triples bridges and Towns so the winner of this series will play Can we go ahead and say the Boston Celtics i don’t know Mark no I’d like You’re not ready to do that i’m not waiting to do that i like how Orlando’s playing i think Orlando is doing their thing they can’t score enough they can’t score but they showing that making sure the defense works for them out of that timeout with 921 to go in the quarter we got a lot of saw where AJ Hinch said he and a lot of the Tigers would be here for this game they have an off day today there are several Detroit Lions players are going to be here it’s nice to get the support from Yeah other other sports teams around all right out of the timeout somebody’s got to make a bucket here 0 for seven knicks during the season obviously a good defense maybe not quite as dominant as they were in previous years but still pretty good cunningham up top tim Hardaway now to Duran top of the key brunson pestering him almost turned it over slip it to Hardway for three and he hits it got away with a travel right there and it’s eight to four New York inside of nine minutes jaylen Brunson on the bounce on the right side of the floor up top to Towns now to Hart duran is on him there’s a back cut by OG anobi for a dunk nicks will do that to you 10-4 anobi having a really good year cunningham with it right side of the floor they pay a lot of attention to him gets a elbow shot up and in to pay attention to him but I can tell you he’s so calm and cool and collected isn’t he though his first bucket 106 Knicks 8/19 to go muel Bridges with it little crossover move gets him free drives across the lane drops it underneath and another dunk this time by Josh Hart and they’re getting into that painted area [Music] 126 nicks by six cunningham with the ball trying to get down the lane a little half hook is off the mark thompson tried to tip it in towns comes out with it hard up the right wing and the push for New York they want to play a better pace in this game and there’s another three for Towns and it’s 15-6 knicks by nine and that was one of those transition baskets again eight points for Carl Anthony Towns already date Cunningham thought about a three instead inches his way closer to the rim and hits 158 New York tristan starting to get what they want offensively but they got to stop the Knicks here goes Brunson and he banks it in falling down they’re just attacking the rim 178 no that’s getting into that painted area six points in the paint rias Harris with it up top off on to Brunson pass to Thompson against Hart thompson double team bounce pass hart away fire it in another three they leave you to go double team i su Thompson that’s what you going to get 17 to 11 knicks on the lead inside of seven minutes brunson on the right side of the floor skips a pass over to Anobi into the left corner cades all over anobi brings it out top here’s Hart still holding slings it to Brunson in the right corner and he hits a three okay let me fasten my seat belt right now knicks are seven of 11 they lead 20 to1 11 kate Cunningham with a basketball works a crossover got bumped no call here’s Hardway with a heat check no falling down on a whistle he got hit in the face he got hit we might have to look at that and see if it was Ooh he’s down for a good while they’re going to review it holding his nose and slapping the floor so the athletic trainers will come out and take a look as we take a look at what happened yeah he just got hit got Brunson got him [Applause] that was that was a weak effort at a block shot let’s just put it that way will So Zack Sarbo will take a look at this thing with 620 to go in the period knicks up by nine they’ve started just the way they wanted to start pistons got out to that 0 for seven they’ll shoot threes so we do know that and big question is is there anything egregious there what do you think oh he’ll it’ll be the ball on the side because he hit him in the right in the face wasn’t like he was going for the block that That’s my That’s my argument Rick i agree with you is it was a very weak effort to try to block the shot in fact I don’t think he even tried to block it n just just caught Hardway in the face looks like Tim’s okay he still kind of had that eye a little bit closed so this could be a uh early six-point play could be yeah this could be a big factor this early in the game in this kind of game so we’ll call this our critical call brought to you by Corwell Health the new name for Bowmont and Spectrum Health i know it’s only 620 to go in the first period but this is critical juncture because the Knicks have come out firing as you would expect all five of their starters have scored close up and he just and I don’t want to say he did it on purpose but there was He did it on purpose used to play there this is going to be [Applause] interesting nick Booker and Zack Zarman were on the headset sean Wright let’s take them long to look at that all right already had uh some friskiness out there on the floor flagrant one they’ll give him a flag of one [Applause] okay we’ll get the call here after review it’s been deemed the defenders made unnecessary contact above the shoulder level for the shooter with a follow through to the eye of the shooter uh this has been upgraded to a flagrant foul penalty run for not making a natural play on the basketball so three free throws and the ball so this potentially could be a six-point throw [Music] what do you think of playoffs so far been uh everything’s I mean other than that series with OKC and and OKC and Memphis this has been a great series clippers and oh that clip nugget series man that’s something so Jim Hardaway Jr will shoot three pins already knocked down a couple of three balls and hits the first of three so it’s 20 to2 New [Applause] York and hits the second one tim Hardway Jr playing in his 45th playoff game already had eight points possible or nine get the ball on the side he got them all 20- 14 good job by Hardway and again Thibido was not happy about the foul situation in game two piston shot 34 his team shot 19 cunningham with the ball up top now for Detroit off to Hardaway and he hits another one for three six-point play how about that 20-7 pistons cut it to three halfway through the period and an Obi between the circles off to Towns up top out of Blenson makes a move on Cunningham turns and rims out the shot thompson with a rebound coming left to right assar leaves it for hard away oh and through the fingertips on the return to Thompson boy you can’t turn that one over bringes and an Obi look out freight train and he lost control going up i think I think Burn got it up nope it’s going to be Detroit ball i think it just came flying out of his hand boy this crowd is making some noise great to hear 20-7 New York 534 to go [Music] all the hard way right now i would cunningham there’s a lob and Duran missed the catch for the dunk but Thompson with a steal it’s only had two here’s Cunningham and he hits and ties the game up at 20 what is that a 120 run well it’s a 90 run hson with it on the left wing fires foul got a whistle foul on Tim Hardaway Jr so the Pistons four out of five from three-point range hardway has three of them as Deuce McBride will come in for New York and Muel Bridges will take a seat quickly Beasley up off the Detroit bench will check in sar Thompson will take a seat sar has filled up the stat sheet already he’s got a steal a point two assists and two rebounds that’s the way to go does his job mcbride to the left sideline sends it into Towns 2020 game and now we get a whistle as Beasley grind and Beasley gets the foul [Applause] [Music] i’ll tell you there’s Chippy out there oh man there’s going to be Chippy the whole game nothing wrong with that as long as you don’t push any silly stuff okay well he put his hand right in his chest brunson will get it in 2020 game inside of five minutes hard away on Brunson drops it in towns now posting up slings a pass underneath Josh Hart and he will score on the pump fake 2220 New York 439 to go here’s Cunningham bobbing and Weman right side harris missed the three towns with a rebound tobias 0 for four now set up the left wing got to get that the hard way up top here’s Towns and that’s another triple 2520 they got to make an adjustment paul Reed up off the Piston bench towns now three out of four here’s a three no good by Cunningham and the Knicks all of a sudden on a five-point run brunson barreling in drops it off to a cutter and Hart missed it slapped up into the air and out of bounds off of New York good hustle by Beasley over there as Mitchell Robinson will come in for New York paul Reed for Detroit and Dennis Shruder in as well when New York goes in this case they are not because Towns is coming out but they’ve used both Robinson and Towns at times in this playoff and I tell you Towns is one of those guys you like being outside you need a guy in there to do some work and that’s what Robinson does yep rebound and block shots 2520 knicks with the lead cunningham with the ball sends it over to Beasley beasley a nice little move steps in but missed the floater tried to keep it alive brunson comes out with it racing up the right sideline slutter locked up on him brunson just backs it down kicks it out top and an Obi for three and it’s good and just like that they’re back up by eight brunson ain’t even scoring they only scored a three but he’s got got three assists so the Knicks are now six of nine shooting threes cunningham throws a wild shot up there hoping to get a whistle and didn’t the Pride for New York might see a Piston timeout here mcbride on the left side of the floor dennis Shruder on him off it goes to Hart now it comes Brunson high point so far cut off on the sideline out on the wing to Hart left corner an Obi again and no good nobody went for the rebound except Josh Hart off to McBride jump shot on the way no good and Reed comes out with it for Detroit dodge one there 28-20 nicks barreling through the traffic high off the glass and oh my gosh Cunningham that was that was beautiful he went to about five Nicks and then Cunningham steals it away from Anobi right underneath the basket and Shruder with it hit that big three in New York going right baseline and he gets a whistle shot no bounced a couple of times and a foul on Duce McBride and what a game we got going here 223 to go opening period 628 and the Pistons 22 on the Pistons radio network you don’t have to play for the Pistons to be treated by the same

Pistons are four of seven three of them by Tim Hardaway who has 12 points cunningham’s got nine and the rebounding so far the Pistons remember had a plus 14 in game two and right now the Knicks have the advantage at 127 what else is sticking out for you well the thing is sticking out for me is that the front other than uh other than Cunningham and Hardway and nobody else only got everybody else got one i mean that’s that’s huge front court played so well Rick the other night in game two especially Harris [Applause] yeah 223 to go in the period pistons had that 90 run that tied the game at 20 and since that time the Knicks on an 8-2 run [Music] oh Isaiah Stewart again tonight he’s looking real sporty over there who’s that got a nice suit on i mean I’m not accustomed to seeing guys wearing suits on the on the on the bench that’s for sure he He’s a throwback all [Music] right dennis Sher will be at the line what an addition he’s been to this team playing in his 71st career playoff game good experience and this is the fourth different team that he has played on in the playoffs atlanta OKC LA and now [Applause] Detroit free throw on the way good 2823 New York game four here on Sunday at 1:00 and then back to New York for game five shoo is the first bench player you need the team to score second one is a make time thibido’s starters all go at least 35 36 minutes here comes Duce McBry over the [Applause] timeline to get it brunson Schruder locked up on him screen by Mitchell Robinson brunson right side of the floor double team and it is New York deflected to seven on the shot clock each team with just one turnover here with 206 to go in the period mix on the lead 28-24 and Anovi slings it up top to Brunson brunson on the attack jump shot is no good rebound hard away everybody helping on the boards up the left side cunningham to Shruder shruder against Brunson attacks underneath the basket he was trying for the uh most exciting shot in the world there he got shoved had a foul on Brunson that’s his second and they didn’t call a shooter no they didn’t intruder is a little upset about that problem before he put it up about that one pistons will have it sideline out as Cameron Payne will come in payne had 11 points in the fourth quarter of game one it was one of the major factors in that game however in game two he misses yeah he couldn’t throw one in the ocean cunningham near midcourt on the dribble just trail by four cunningham on the move pulls up mid-range and missed it reed had it for a moment hart stole it pistons get it back cunningham beasley pump fake shruder steps to the left fires and hooks oh he’s having fun it’s a one-point game 28-27 New York minute 20 to go anobi up top picked up his dribble sends it to Mitchell Robinson not a threat out there off to Anobi he dumps it to Robinson knocked away by Paul Reed and recovered by Anobi he’s going to get a whistle nice good hustle though very good hustle good deflection giving it a two shot okay explain to me why that’s a shot and shooters wasn’t anobi to the line hardway picked up the foul lg Anenobi came over in a trade in 2023 hits the free throw 2927 now Ron Holland will check in and JB’s tightened up his bench all the coaches do Rick in the playoffs yes they do until someone gets hurt Jimmy Butler might be out for a few that’s too bad i saw that last night second free throw is a make 3027 Knicks and 10 to go yeah that was really a scary thing my opinion that Draymond Green shoved Amend Thompson and there’s a pass reed lost mitchell Robinson forcing the turnover on the push Anobi kicks it off his own foot and out of bounds thank you very much two turnovers by each team towns in so now the Knicks Rick are going to go to the two bigs Towns and Robinson harris will come back for Detroit they had some success with that oh boy reed and Mitchell Robinson i know you can’t get thrown out man oh he’s gone oh he is really gone definitely yeah fist can’t afford that can’t afford that but got to keep cooler heads i don’t know what Mitchell Robinson did to ignite it but he did something they’re going to be calling a lot more fouls now well the best the Pistons can hope for is a double check we just had Reed locked up and wouldn’t let him go how about this for a first quarter this will be the first quarter the first quarter 51.8 seconds to go in it hopefully he gets attacked well it should be double tech they might they might tee up Towns because he Yeah he plays under review for an altercation that didn’t resolve well I just I say just double text and let’s move on not sure what the officials are going to do here who knows other action uh tonight in this game the Pistons are not the only game around so we’ve had some great playoff series man porzingis gets hit in the head and comes back out came back smiling like the unicorn came back smiling isn’t that his nickname or something like that or I don’t know well that was it was kind of funny because Joe Mazilla says “I like it when he uh gets hit in the head.” Yeah Thunder playing the Grizzlies tonight that’s the one Memphis has got to figure something out they can’t even score 100 points against OKC i think that’s all in that locker room i I mean right now you get a new coach at the end of the year and you go “Okay what are we supposed to do?” Change a whole bunch of philosophies coming into one that’s really good nuggets and Clippers now in LA and Kawhi Leonard put on a show in game two we put on That’s the scary team out there in the West it didn’t take long uh Zach Zarba talking with his you know fellow officials about this one but I hope it’s just double checks and Towns pushing Reed off and trying to break it up to a degree but he pushed and that should be it should be Reed technical and Towns a technical after review there will be double technicals assessed to Paul Reed and Mitchell Robinson an additional technical added to Carl Towns one shot hit that one right on the head yeah Towns with a shove that’s That’s how he got the T they might be doing this i mean this is Wow so three technicals the only one that shoot and I think that’s F’s not certain why he got the technical but in that situation that that’s You got to give him one yeah you got to give him one yeah it’s hard for him to back off but he was more of the aggressor I think than Mitchell Robinson was so Cunningham will get a technical free throw here try to bring the Pistons within two and he missed it so it’s still 30- 27 pistons six of eight at the line knicks are four for four you can’t complain about not getting to the free throw line all right Tade Cunningham Tobias Harris out there paul Reed Dennis Shruder and Malik Beasley cunningham to Harris back to Cade out on the perimeter to the right wing mitchell Robinson picks him up top beasley going to fire and he cannot get one to go he’s struggling 30-27 Knicks with the lead cameron Payne with Shruder on him left wing going to try to give it up and does to Towns turn shoots missed rushed that one Beasley with a rebound to Shooter Shruder racing up the floor Beasley on the right wing and he still can’t hit one Robinson with a rebound man oh man 3027 final possession here for the Knicks and gets the foul on Cunningham his arms and Cunningham’s been out there the whole quarter [Applause] and Malik struggling in this uh playoff series 36% from the field seven of 22 from three-point range three throws were to make and the Knicks lead is four 31-27 josh Hart coming back in muel Bridges as well as Towns and Payne will both sit down offense for defense pistons only 33% shooting in the opening quarter and yet they’re right there second free throw for Anobi that’s short but Mitchell Robinson rebounds whirls to the basket no followed up anovi 3327 [Applause] and the Pistons had it down to one at 28-27 but then again the Knicks ran off five straight to take the lead after one 3327 on the Pistons Radio

Pistons knicks with the lead 33-27 they had a couple of runs the Pistons had a 9 run to tie the game at 20 then the Knicks had an 8 nothing run pistons pulled within one at 28-27 and the Knicks closed the quarter with a 5 nothing run and the Piston front court starters Thompson Harris and Duran have combined for one point yeah I tell you last game Duran was just an immovable object in that painted area getting offensive rebounds but when he started the game off getting that first two points he just brought that ball up and dunked well the Pistons certainly miss isaiah Stewart passing his second game so it’ll be Duran Holland Schlruder out there with Harrison Beasley and Rick as you mentioned K played the quarter so he’s going to rest to begin the second period the Knicks have Landry Shaman in the game for the first time cameron Payne Deuce McBride Mitchell Robinson and Carl Anthony Towns how about this you got three small guys and two really big guys turn the ball over and Mc Bryan had it knocked away as Holland’s pestering him in the back court he turned it over did he turn it over no it’s still Nick’s ball still got to get that ball over shamut gets it in and Holland is really pestering goose McBride got it across the timeline got to be careful not to commit the foul mcbride doing a lot of bobbing and weaving sends it over to Cameron Payne payne on the move all the way to the basket and missed robinson had it and then got a whistle and that was on Frooter he went on over his back they’re going to call that nine times out of 10 so the Knicks had 10 points in the paint in that opening period yeah you’re right there they’re going to call i mean they’re going to tighten up the calls right now sideline out as Payne gets it into McBride holland on him again screen by Mitchell Robinson but a double team on McBride boing back to the right now back to the left offbalance shot off and no good what a great job here comes Harris slides it to Shruder pistons trail 33-27 shruder hounded by Shamut goes to Harris well both these teams are playing some serious defense harris had to knock loose recovered it can’t hold the ball and now a foul on Cameron B oh my goodness got those three little guards out there they are being bests now muel Bridges going to come back for Deuce McBride [Applause] cameron Payne had been lower in the rotation but he had that game one flurry that earned him few more minutes in game two and they didn’t take advantage of it shruder with the ball now to Duran up top hand off Malik Beasley trying to find his shooting touch now Shruder left sideline 5 seconds got to get it up shruder will there’s a rainbow oh and he hits it that was gold at the end of that rainbow 33-30 in the New York Knicks 10 to go eight points off the bench carl Anthony Towns posting up Bridges against the smaller Shruder skips it up top to Payne seven on the shot clock a lot of space for him you got to be careful he can shoot that three ball now Holland up on him payne drives it and is late shot clock violation good defense 1031 to go here in the second and it’s a three-point Knicks lead 3330 they jumped out to an early 15-6 and then 178 and then 20 to1 before the Pistons finally got it going shruder the ball bridges good defender on him shruder got a step high flip no good shruder tried to slap it back but couldn’t that was a tough shot there did it hit anybody other than intruder he threw it up there you can’t touch that again another turnover so the Knicks get it and here comes Cameron Payne out of Murray State his 61st career playoff game that’s where the Knicks have a big advantage towns with it pays into Harris whirls around and Harris stripped it but they’re calling a foul on Tobias i said they knew the rest are going to pick up the pick up their whistles after that little skirmish a couple of them let’s see where Tobias got it yeah got him in the arms oh I don’t know jb doesn’t think so sure looked like he did hands part of the ball so we’ll get a coach’s challenge here with 330 to go in the second period and the New York Knicks with the lead 33-30 on the Pistons Radio Network looking to play rivers will make your day take a

near you parker Rick back with you kia brought you the break so we saw a number of different replays and here’s Zach Zara with the call after review the defender initially makes handtohand contact with his opponent but then that hand slides down illegally to the wrist of the shooter therefore the ruling on the floor stands as a defensive foul it’s an unsuccessful challenge that’s a tough one right there yeah that’s a tough one to That’s where you got to hope that uh your assistant coaches who handle that sort of thing really know the rules so no more challenges left and the Pistons trail the New York Knicks 3330 new York came out i mean I think the Pistons have done a pretty good job Rick withstanding this early onslaught by New York yeah I mean after that time out it seemed to gather everything together they just got to find front court scoring dennis Shruder has eight Cunningham has nine and Hardaway has 12 it’s all from the back court 29 of the 30 points all right Holland still out there so is Beasley JD who so far hasn’t been able to get going shruder thank God for him eight points off the bench couple of threes hardway’s three for three long range that’s a tough challenge on that one right there i’d have probably just go ahead and just take it cuz once it slid down so Carl Anthony Towns will head to the free throw [Applause] line 22 games of 30 plus points this year for the Knicks had a 46 point 10 rebound game against the Bulls [Music] and he hits the first one good free throw shooter [Applause] came over in the trade for Lewis Randall Dante De Vincenzo and Minnesota said “Thank you.” Even though they didn’t look that good the other night second free throw coming that’s good as well so the Knicks with the five-point lead at 3530 they’ve led wire to wire so far tobias Harris with the ball right side of the floor flips it to Holland got it to Shruder but he was extended to midcourt now Beasley to Duran seven to shoot he wheels toward the basket and got fouled robinson got it mitchell Robinson is a long and lanky kid long legs long arms did not attend college which is Shalet High School had ankle surgery and battled injuries so free throws coming for Jaylen Duran his first at the line and hits the first one shot 3531 pistons seven of nine the Knicks are seven of eight so no room for criticizing this is going possession per per possession and it’s this is playoff basketball second is a mate one possession lead for the Knicks 3532 945 to go cameron Payne beingounded by Shruder across the timeline now brings it to the middle now goes down the lane flips it up makes it 3732 he did not have a good game two but he’s playing pretty well here tonight he went didn’t even shoot the ball because he was playing poorly in that game here’s Shruder with it down the left wing another three on the way bangs that one down 37-35 he’s got an He’s got an interesting looking arc on his shot 906 before halftime kell Bridges hard screen by Payton mid court just keeps the dribble brings it right side of the floor flips it into the corner and Payne hits a three two he He jumped forward had a foot on the line so it’s a two pistons have it look out beasley now holland and everybody’s on the floor trying to dig it out of there and finally the Pistons get it beasley to Holland back to Bees and he just can’t make a three rebound to Towns slings it ahead to Bridges 3935 Knicks Bridges to the baseline off balance got it to Payne and there’s a whistle pass that’s on Tobias that’s his [Applause] third not happy with that 825 to go but you get back in there with Cade a bad substitution not a bad substitution so Harris will sit he has yet to score in this game 0 for four coming off a 15.13 rebound game in game two and Ojan Nobi comes in for Shimmit and guess what he’s going to do he’s going to guard Kade C oh he’s going to follow him over nobody can nobody can take Cage right now so Robinson up top for New York over the sideline in now to Bridges bridges elevates and in and out he’s a really good shooter but missed that one holland slings it ahead beasley had his back turned but somehow Cunningham gets it crosses over then he gets knocked down shruder deflects it and Anobi ahead and Bridges missed it out of nowhere holly [Applause] Holla grief he’s got to make one 3935 New York beasley 045 and here’s Towns no good long rebound shruder if Towns would have gone for the miss instead of posing here’s Cunningham pup fakes a three drives to the rim and got a whistle wow we got going here this Robinson’s going to pick up the foul okay how’s this a sideline up he was in the air wasn’t he [Applause] hardway back in spiders are coming in josh Hart back in for New York brunson’s coming back he’s been on the bench a while five points for Jaylen Brunson he’s eating up the booing by the way that’s See there’s one thing though you love to hear opposing teams boo you knowing that hey you’re under their skin somehow some way yep and it goes to Tim Hardaway back to Cunningham kade with nine points works his way to the right elbow and hits it so calm cool and collected 3937 Nicks 724 to go in the opening half game three towns on the left wing darren with a hand in the face towns puts it on the floor gathers awkward and he is Oh they’re going to call a foul jaylen Durren it’ll be two on him three on Harris two on Hardway and Duran you kind of grab them when you look at the replay and challenge it it’s not that one he grabs him pistons have no challenge so on we play bridges guarded by Hardway a hip check by Towns now Brunson has it near midcourt works it back to Carl Anthony Towns two to shoot steps back fires misses holland chases it down on the run pistons down by two holland and he’s got to be careful and a whistle kick ball and Shruder’s up talking to Ron Holl he says “Man you cannot do that those Knicks are too good you can’t split them like that 653 to go before the break 3937 New York hardway gets it into Kate Cunningham kate on the move bumps into Towns up in the air dishes behind him hardway for three and he hits another one and the Pistons have their first lead at 40-39 hardway four for four

16-6 quarter i don’t know what you’re more pleased with as a coach Rick the offense or the fact you’ve held the Knicks to six points yeah I tell you one thing about it it’s a long game and the Knicks came back at on each game to his last two games you know this thing there was electricity in this building and Nicks jumped out to the early lead eight to one the Pistons missed their first seven and then suddenly got things turned around a 20-11 New York lead was suddenly 2020 they bumped it up to 2820 and then the came back again and that’s what they’ve been doing a lot of fight we’ve had double

the right wing cut off by Towns they’re going to say he bodied up Kate Cunningham that’ll be a foul that’s the same type of foul really that Harris committed he pick up his third they also got Rip Hamilton in in the house too oh RIP’s in the building richard Hamilton sorry Richard to you cunningham gets it in 4341 Detroit dennis Shruder with the ball screen by Duran shruder on the attack shot up shot in he was playing with so much poise didn’t he huh and then a backcourt inbounds foul on Holland and that’s it’s a penalty oh that is just that’s a big mistake the young fella’s got to and I

is just powered he’s being aggressive yes he is 4745 he’s got 17 points cunningham out of the right wing crosses back to the right hesitates baseline over Anonovi drops off no good rebound Bridges nicks looking to tire take the lead brunson has it slings one to the left corner bridges short and the rebound to Shruder pistons by two with the ball then it’s Shruder on the attack drops it to Cade

the Pistons and while we were at the break Rick Brunson Jaylen Brunson’s dad and assistant coach of the Knicks and JD Bickerstaff going at it yelling at one another i’m not sure about what Kade Cade and Jaylen Brunson were kind of there in the vicinity i tell you what I I give a lot of credit to the officials here tonight they overall they’ve done a pretty good job here of trying to keep this thing under control all right Pistons down three cunningham with a basketball 11 points so far for Cade has one on the left sideline attacks bumped by Anobi but flips it up and in good attack there so smooth 50-49 now new York 323 to go jayen Brunson with it a two for seven game so far fins off with his off arm a couple of times on Thompson now barrels into him underneath and he gets the whistle thompson misses first foul first foul on Assar he wasn’t out there in that second well that’s what Jaylen Brunson does i mean in the playoffs he’s averaging 10 and a half fouls on that that was a trip a lot of players use that i don’t know that view looked more like a Brunson stumble but it’s two free throws because the official setup was Brunson at the line 50- 49 New York and the lefty hits the first one you like those lefties huh had to get that in you’re kind of partial right 51 to 49 you’re not left-handed are you i am so is my lovely bride wow two lefties in the house remember I’m a righty i’m not coming to your eyes so Brunson for the second free throw they’ve only missed one as a team and that one almost got it 5249 New York 314 still to go in a very entertaining first half cunningham with the basketball between the circles guarded by Ananobi coming to get it hard away with Josh Hart on him pushed up to the free throw line does and look out there’s a turnover anobi racing up and scoring pistons they can’t hold that ball they got to move it that’s what uh Schroer was doing a lot of 5449 so the Pistons now with seven turnovers here’s Cunningham against Muel Bridges to the basket no block and here comes Brunson racing up the left wing and just barrels into nobody yeah that’s an offensive foul he was completely out of control on that one he’s wanting him to challenge meanwhile the ball challenging it so Tom Thippo is going to challenge the call i can’t see i can’t see it from that angle no so they’ll take a look at it here with 233 to go in the second period knicks back up by five now 5449 a lot of drooling on the floor is an offensive foul on Brunson new York is challenging [Applause] lot of referee looking the difference in this game right now i mean a lot of the numbers are very close but the difference really the Knicks have 20 points in the paint pistons only have eight the bench Piston bench has outscored the Knicks bench 15 to four but that’s not unusual because doesn’t get a lot out of his bench they don’t play very many [Applause] minutes he’s used four off the bench mcbride Robinson Payne and Shamut i’m surprised they ain’t playing a chewer he really hurt us last time the Knicks played yeah he hasn’t hasn’t played at all they haven’t gone any deeper than those four off the bench a savvy veteran and PJ Tucker well there’s a good Yeah Tim brought up a good question did a SAR make contact i’m looking at it right now he used his hip whoa got a little hip action there so that could be after the first illegal contact on the play is delivered by Thompson to Brunson therefore the ruling on the floor is overturned to a defensive foul on Thompson brocks commit to the play that’s what I call a successful challenge for New York they retain their timeout and the right to challenge so everybody was concentrating on Beasley there they used that that hip yeah that’s clearly a time from that angle of course and you know Zack Zarra is the baseline official well Sar was certainly frustrated in game two when he fouled out he I’m sure he watched plenty of tape so that’s uh two fouls on him and the Knicks have the lead 5449 with free throws coming you know Mark you pointed out something on the Pistons bench 13 uh 15 points off the bench but then you got your starters your front starters is only three three points yeah so Brunson makes the lead is growing now at the six 5549 [Applause] game four Sunday right here at LCA 1:00 start [Applause] brunson clutch player of the year gets another one 56- 49 this one’s need to close this quarter and we got Obi get the ball in that’s a bad foul no that was a bad foul that OG and a good call by the ref yeah but a bad foul bad foul both both coaches are really into these referees ears yeah they’re going to they’re going to be in for it thompson at the line meanwhile they might get mushroom here in a little while [Applause] first one on the way [Applause] nope first playoff series and Assar’s young career [Applause] i’m sure if you ask him you’d say “Yeah it feels a little different down here.” And then his brother feeling second one on the way and that one’s good 56- 50 the New York Knicks thompson and I mean Carl Anthony Towns i’m watching that one him and Dur josh Hart with the basketball now guarded by Hardway johnson with the hands of Brunson runs in bobbing and weaving goes into the left corner anobi for three he’s been the X factor for the Knicks right now suddenly they’re up by nine 18 points i think I think Shruder is going to have to play some heavy minutes in this game 59 to 50 there’s a pass that almost was stolen come on Bees beasley for the sideline way off the mark here come the Knicks fast break inside of two minutes towns wild pass to Anobi no good for three rebound Thompson all the way down there 59-50 New York josh Hart making moves thompson underneath the basket had it deflected by Anobi and I’ll tell you these Knicks are playing some serious defense yes they are shruder’s come in thompson is out not happy need some scoring right now yep thompson only has two points 38% shooting by Detroit they just hadn’t been able to get any outside of Hardway and Sherman duran picks up his dribble now towns jumps out on him off it goes to Cade and he turned it over muel Bridges on the break lays it in turnovers starting to mount up biggest lead for the Knicks 61 to 50 well they have turned it up defensively yeah they really have and it’s Shruder with the ball in between the circles beasley comes to get it he’s 0 for six gives it to Duran with five to shoot flip it to Shruder shruder pump fake they go to Duran down the lane blocked that was not a good shot muel Bridges to the head to Anobi in the paint up top towns to Brunson the Bridges and it’s good for three and it’s 64-50 New York they’re on a 14-1 run didn’t want to see that nope they come to play here’s Cunningham right corner to Beasley finally gets one to go yes three-pointer in the corner and it’s 6453 finish this quarter strong boy did the Pistons need that brunson with it five assists to go with five boards and 11 points brunson using the clock about a 12sec differential now he’s on the move left side puts it up and banks it in he moving them 66- 53 New York 66 points by New York that’s way too many here’s Cunningham on the move to the basket blocked by Bridges towns with the save no and we have reached halftime well the New York Knicks went on a 16-4 run to close the half and now the Pistons have to dig out of a 13-point deficit in game three 6653 on the Pistons Radio Network you don’t have to play for the Pistons to be treated by the same doctors who keep the team at their best i can’t dunk in size 18 sneakers but I can play 18

the Detroit Pistons halftime show on the Pistons Radio Network here’s your host Chris Farar welcome in to the halftime show presented by Belffor Property Restoration we’re looking for the first postseason win in Little Caesar’s history tonight little Caesar’s Arena and going up 2-1 in a playoff series would be a plus as well the Pistons and Knicks series shifting to Detroit tonight so far a big New York run in the final minutes gave them a double-digit lead 66 to 53 so the home team will have to climb out of that hole in order to get it done the first half looked pretty good for the boys during both games in New York shifting to the D one thing was very very very very noticeable the crowd was loud right out of the gate it was a white out at the arena the shirts say back to work and Mark and Rick were having trouble hearing each other during those introductions a full house of Detroit fans letting them know just how behind them they are half the city lit up blue this morning in support of the run it’s been very very cool aj Hinch and several Tigers in the house rose and Weber both there and Riff Hamilton spotted ben Wallace getting a gong as well tons of support now one injury note in this one isaiah Stewart is still sitting this game out he was out for Monday’s game two with knee inflammation came into tonight questionable but ultimately is not on the floor for this one but with that let’s check the first half rundown to see how it all went down now after Cade gathered the opening tip the two teams traded misses back and forth and Jaylen Brunson earned some uh boobirds from the crowd that would be an ongoing theme and eventually Bridges hit a three to get the scoring started and we would be underway with New York striking first well things could get started a little chippy out there rick loved to see it no love loss between the teams it would seem and we’d have a quick timeout from JB Bickerstaff as they began the game 0 for7 from the floor and Assar free throw the only point during an 8 to1 start for the Knicks after two and a half minutes a bit skittish out of the gate now after that timeout the scoreboard started lighting up both ways cade started cooking three balls dropping on each side and then they got a sixpoint play when Tim Hardaway took a flagrant foul by Brunson made the free throws then capitalized on the bonus possession cunningham with the ball up top now for Detroit off to Hardaway and he hits another one for three six-point play how about that 20-7 distance cut it to three yeah that was part of a 9 run by Detroit to tie the game at 20 with 5 minutes to go in the period but it is a game of runs and the Knicks went back up eight then the Pistons answering right back to make it a one-point game dennis Shruder another huge three deja vu from Monday just a lot earlier this time one big problem though Paul Reed getting real worked up during a spat with towns a fight almost breaking out now eventually a double tech was handed out so Reed will have to be careful can’t afford to lose any more frontcourt depth with Stu not out there uh when the dust cleared in the opening quarter the Knicks scored five straight and led 33 to 27 harris and Beasley struggling with their shots a combined 0 for7 at that point though Hardway led the way with a dozen now Ron Holland would actually start on the floor in the second quarter he Shruder Beasley joining Duran and Harris dennis hit another triple but otherwise pretty sloppy play from both teams around the 8-minute mark we saw absolute chaos out there in both directions guys falling down trying to save the ball interceptions a big block by Holland several steals missed open threes and eventually Cade would hit a mid-range jumper to get Detroit back within two 39-37 then Hardaway would hit his fourth triple give the boys their first lead of the night and he was not done brunson barreling down shruder sticking with him underneath the basket reverse layup block cunningham to Hardaway he check he is another one the roof came off the building there loud redefined five threes for TH3 43-39 with six minutes to play now here’s where things would go the wrong direction the final minutes almost in the blink of an eye new York firing off a 21-3 run beasley was able to get a shot to go finally maybe that would get them going here but the Knicks did own a 66 to 53 lead as they went into the locker room and that is where we are right now now the individual statistics in this one so far uh Tobias Harris and Malik Beasley uh they are laboring right now harris 0 for four for no points beasley hit that one three at the end but he’s still one for seven from the game uh the guys that are doing all the scoring Dennis Shruder off the bench has 13 also Kate Cunningham with 13 18 points for Tim Hardaway he is five for five from downtown the other starters Assar Thompson is still struggling out there 10 minutes just two points few rebounds and a couple of assists though jaylen Duran not doing a whole lot in his 18 minutes he’s got two points a couple of rebounds and a couple of assists uh trying to get those offensive boards and clog up the lanes if he can ron Holland came in for eight minutes scored two points malik Beasley those three and Paul Reed no points in six minutes of play in a near fight out there as well now on the other side the Knicks starters are the ones that are getting it done carl Anthony Towns 17 points 18 for Anobi 10 for Mikuel Bridges and 13 for Jaylen Brunson although he is getting all the boobirds he is still being productive though just three of eight from the floor he’s gone to the free throw line and made six of those so far in this game the Pistons shooting 38% the Knicks shooting 50% from the floor they led by as many as 14 in this one right now they’re up 1366- 53 at Little Caesar’s Arena now coming up we’ll take a look at the other scores in the NBA and what’s coming up in

the halftime show presented by Belffor Property Restoration the last time the Pistons and Knicks met in the first round of the playoffs was 1992 new York took that series and the boys would love to turn those tables here in front of a white out crowd so far they have work to do they’re down 66 to 53 with a rough final few minutes of that second quarter but with that let’s take a look around the association and right before game time tonight the NBA did announce their defensive player of the year they gave it to Evan Mobley of the Cleveland Cavaliers beating out Draymond Green and Dyson Daniels the Pistons still have Kate Cunningham up for most improved player and JBstaff is a finalist for coach of the year we’ll find out soon if any hardware is handed out to this team for their

two games to none on the Heat the Pacers lead the Bucks two to nothing celtics up two nothing on the Magic the West a little bit more competitive nuggets and Clippers are tied at 1-1 lakers and Timberwolves the same also 1-1 split between the Rockets and Warriors but the Thunder again up 20 on those Grizzlies also coming up tonight uh they’re taking a backseat to the Pistons but the Lions in

to the halftime show presented by Belffor Property Restoration the Pistons snapped a 15game playoff losing skid earlier in the week and they’d love to earn a first postseason win at LCA tonight but after a brutal final five minutes of that second quarter the boys will have to scrap out of a deficit they’re down 66 to 53 and for the start of the third quarter we’ll send it back to Mark Champion and Rick Mahorn uh Rick what happened during that final stretch where did the momentum change a lot not not a lot of ball movement i thought it was not a lot of ball movement but also I thought you know after they were up in that first in that third period 20 what was it 20-6 or 16 to 16 to six in the beginning but then it was like all of a sudden seemed like New York became the aggressor so you got to make sure that you take care of the basketball but also rebound the ball and you got to get that front court for the Pistons going yeah four points between Thompson Harris and Duran while the Knicks front court Hart Anobi and Towns have 39 points and then Brunson you know pretty decent job on Brunson 13 five assists five boards but three of eight shooting towns had 17 in that first half the Pistons got to get back i think Jim Hardway Jr five for five from three-point range Rick yeah you got to continue to get it to the hot men this is if a guy’s hot give it to him yeah you get away from him then they like “Okay now you want to give me the ball.” You know you got to have that i know you want to get Malik Beasley going but if he’s not going the shooter is going to keep shooting elvis Pistons had those backto back threes they were up 43-39 and then suddenly the Knicks uh just took over outscored them 27-10 the rest of the way so we’ll see what Pistons have got hey we got to have a uh a shout out you realize you realize in this building tonight we have three Hall of Fame broadcasters george Lawa Mike Green and Kevin Harlem wow how about that three Hall of Famers pretty

six on the shot clock towns with it fires and missed badly good stop here’s Cunningham 13 first half points with four assists got to get Tobias Harris going top to Hardaway swing it over to Thompson thompson driving a kick here’s Duran down the avenue for the bucket nice to see him get it going 6655 New York just underway in the third game three that’s his first bucket brunson directing traffic off to Anobi who had 18 in the first half now Towns out on the right wing drops it inside to Anobi backing down the Saler Thompson with a fade away that’s no good another stop cunningham right to left stops up top fires a three nope had a good look at it hart with a rebound and he took a shot in the kidney and just kept going towns with a pump fake there he goes barreling down the lane for the layup and he got it brown has two fouls got to meet him early 68- 55 [Applause] towns is a handful when he gets going he’s going tonight cunningham with the basketball six out of 16 shooting got it to Duran up top and he flips it back to Cade with Anobi on it cunningham weaving against Towns puts it up falling down and hits hard earned bucket 6857 New York 1012 to go into third brunson will walk it

Dennis Schru josh Hart is not scoring in that starting lineup but he’s two for three but he does have seven assists and five rebounds who’s a terrific rebounder it’s a veteran ball club but like you

free throw line you know it’s nice to see guys at halftime like Lindsay Hunter and John Long James Edwards all here supporting their team are those champions right there yes sir free throws a make and an Obi second one is a make as well so it’s 70-62 some of them multiple champions thompson up the right sideline for Detroit in the home white out top to Cunningham with Bridges on [Music] him kade to

inside to Duran and he scores nice block by Brunson tried to sell a charge 70-64 now inside of 8 minutes in the third dur’s come alive there’s a turnover thompson streaking ahead and scores that foul on the play and is that a call that break where the defender there josh Hart picked up the foul no that one was right at the rim i don’t know if there was anything there the thing I was worried about was whether it knocked him off balance or [Applause] not thompson kind of the shoe came off so had to head to the pits and get a new new tire so with four four assists three rebounds that’s that [Applause] she halftime no steals yet could have a deflection still trying to get his shoe as they are wiping up the perspiration out of the lane 748 to go in the third 70-6 pistons are within [Applause] four thompson got it step it in three-point game and the Pistons on a 144 run brunson with it good show by Harris brunson keeps his dribble out now to Bridges on the right elbow against Hardway travel and a travel hardway grabs the ball away from Bridges and says “Give it to me we’re going to push.” Jim Hardway Jr with 21 cade with 15 five boards five assists cunningham gives it to Duran up top against Towns shs him away back to Cunningham with nine to shoot comes up top pick and roll underneath during with the extra pass and a Thompson dunk and it’s a one-point game 70-69 that’s the Pistons basketball i like seeing the ball movement carl Anthony Towns to Ananobi and down he goes Buffalo and did he turn it over no they say off Detroit 13 on the shot clock seven to go into third pistons have fought back down 13 at the break now down just one and game three what a game this has been brunson looking to get it in a three for 10 night for him so far sends in the bounce pass to Bridges out to Towns pump fakes from the left leg drive slipped it back to Bridges bridges driving to the rim there’s a foul duran blocked it but there was a whistle ahead of that okay he got him on the arm before he released the ball that would be his third so Muel Bridges will head to the line he came over in a trade that involved four number one draft [Applause] picks as he hits the free throw course they had four they call him the Villanova mafia when they had Dven Shinszo here to go along with Josh Hart Miguel Bridges and Jaylen Burns it’s a pretty good for even shooting commercials with all three of them in there giving them a Villanova hat 7269 on the New York with the lead here’s Cunningham going baseline underneath the basket reverse layup no whistle and Tom Thibido not happy with Nick Booker who was the outside official i’m glad they called him more fouls early because you guys all up tight so the foul on Carl Anthony Towns that’s two on him so Cunningham to the free throw line he’s only attempted one free throw tonight hits the first one and it’s 7270 in game two Gabe was 10 of 12 at the line and Pivot was arguing and barking and about that growling and growling second free throw good 7271 knicks by one 640 in the third brunson works his way against Thompson up the left sideline floats a high pass to Towns towns against Dur oh what a move by Towns and he banks it in got a foul oh now that was an impressive move he went on attack soon as he touched that ball 7471 towns with 21 i don’t know if he’s got 20 so their front court 45 points piston front court 15 points and he’s going every time touches the ball he’s going left remember he only took three shots in the entire second half none in the fourth quarter so he has already put up four here in this third and we’ll try to add to it here with the free throw takes that one so it’s 7571 New York knicks have only missed one free throw browns now five of five cunningham to Harris bridges out on him duran way out on the right wing picks up the dribble needs some help normally he’s not there and that’s going to be a New York foul it’s a silly one of seen drunk Duran that’s three on cat but Dur did the same thing that Muel Bridges did and they called the travel cuz he’s still moving that physical foot got away with one pistons have eight turnovers the Knicks have six and it goes to Cade Cunningham 17-point night to Duran decade left side trying to inch underneath the basket finds Thompson but he brought that ball down and turned it over not so sure the pass should have been thrown here’s Bridges and now Anovi is going to step into one high off the rim duran swoops in for his sixth rebound 7571 Knicks thompson up top here’s Hardaway missed his first three but Harris rebounds now Cunningham has it back to Tobias right side to Tim Hardaway Jr one dribble and now it is stolen by Josh Hart wow and a foul on Harris boy the Pistons have got to do a better job on those passes than the ball [Applause] so 533 to go so Harris with his fourth foul has yet to score in this game major factor in it beasley’s only scored three [Applause] points so the Knicks have it shruder in pokes it away from Brunson brunson picks it up and that’s an eight count and a great job by Dennis Shruder forcing the Knicks turnover we’ve had several of those tonight where the Pistons turn it over the Knicks give it right back 7571 New York kate Cunningham with the basketball up top pick and roll duran flying in for the dunk and it’s a two-point game classic Cage Stur timeout knicks with a timeout 515 in the third it’s the Knicks 75 and the Pistons 73 on the Pistons radio network pretzel Crust is back at Little Caesars and fans are excited even my pet sheep is

different experience because nothing compares to catching your favorite team in real life especially during the 2025 NBA playoffs presented by Google and that all starts with buying tickets at Ticketmaster get 2025 NBA playoffs presented by Google tickets at ticketmaster no better brag than being able to say you were at the playoffs live apoint game here Rick and the Pistons outscore the Knicks 20 to9 in this period but I remember something in that second period it was what was it 20 it was 16 to six start to that period started out so and the Knicks went on a run to close the half led by 13 but now the Pistons come back that kind of game as Rick Hamilton is sitting right next to Ben Wallace and Artellum yes sir [Applause] everyone’s going to hear that [Applause] so we got ourselves a heck of a game here with 515 to go into third thompson out there with Hardway jaylen Duran kade Cunningham who played the entire first quarter shruder isounding Brunson across the line already got him to commit an 8sec refraction earlier brunson near midcourt slings a fast ball to Towns back to Brunson brunson with a pull up on the baseline no good rebound cunningham distance can tie it there’s a bounce pass to Duran skip to the left corner hardway the former Nick and he misses in front of the Knicks bench 7573 New York hart to town good bangs in a three that was a big shot he has had a huge game 25 and six boards four triples 7873 New York that’s their 10th triple pistons have 11 cunningham duran pick and roll dunk for JD towns is jumping out with a pick and roll and tell you I love the way that Kate Cunningham always knows he’s there dur with a 10-point third period kell Bridges with it left side of the floor got two on drives and scores and got fouled was that a Shruder move as well called Adam Hardway i think so so 80-75 just when you think you had Beasley now will come in for Asar Thompson leak with just one triple of the game only three points really struggled here in the playoffs with his shooting that’s how So Bridges at the line began his career drafted by Philly was traded draft night to Phoenix he’s the 10th pick of the draft back in 18 free throw on the way is good 8175 New York and Shruder now on the point cade gets it against Anobi kade get free from a couple of Knicks defenders has it on the right sideline trying to attack kicks to Shrew pump fakes Anobi out of the way fires and no good duran trying to get it but out of bounds off JD nicks will get it that was a good looking shot by Shruder man that was really online that’s good so 344 to go into third and the Knicks have the six-point lead 8175 christians need a stop here jaylen Brunson brings it across screen by Towns brunson with a 15-footer good and a foul sean Wright got to have a landing spot for him 8375 pistons not able to get the stops when they need them or the buckets when they need them at the other end so this has been a little frustrating paul Reed’s going to have to check into the lineup norn has four so Duran four Harris four hardway and cutting in and Thompson all with three now Mitchell Robinson’s going to come in he’s a tall dude man you know reminds me of John Sally he’s listed at 7 foot but I think he’s taller than that and why why do we have play held up here all these playoff games have been long for it was a hour and 17 minutes [Applause] so Brunson at the line the lead is eight now for New York her biggest lead [Applause] 14 and Brunson makes so it’s 8475 this is going to have to come up with another run here kate Cunningham just seven of 18 shooting has the ball between the circles hardway comes to get it cut off by Mitchell Robinson out to Cunningham 10 to shoot cade barreling in up in the air nice save by Reed who’s fouled and will shoot too that was a heck of a save yeah it was a heck of a bail out got caught in the air see Paul Reed will head to the line again no Isaiah Stewart no word on whether he might be available on Sunday he was listed as questionable throughout the day and then ruled out free throws make by P Reed [Applause] 8476 reed played well up in New York in game two he did his defense at in and out on the free throw but oh almost he almost had that thing but Josh Hart able to take it away now Brunson Brunson crossover ball loose he picks it back up now drops it to Anobi and to the left baseline jumper good he’s been kind of the X factor Mark and now they’re up double figures 8676 Six cunningham up top and there’s a bad foul by Deuce McBride he’s the recipient ron Holland will come back into the lineup momentarily soon as the first free throw is attempted here so Malik Beasley still trying to find that shooting touch that led him to a career best 319 threes during the regular season and I’m kind of mad that he didn’t get that sixman of the year award well the Ant-Man decided to play and cashed in as the free throws are make 8677 as Holland comes in the Antman [Music] so second one coming for Beasley anthony Edwards he got six man no I’m saying that three-point shooting oh six man ended up with the most blue points second free throw is a make 8678 no that should be B the sixth man but but instead it went to Payton Pritchard so good for him jay and Brunson now with it puts it on the floor left sideline shruers on him brunson still with a dribble skips it to McBride jump shot is off the rim and the rebound to Paul Reed distance trail by eight cunningham again with it couldn’t get it to Beasley kay to the right sideline dribble beasley comes to get it beasley on the attack throws it up no reed offensive rebound sends it to Shruder up top to Beasley and he missed a three man oh man long outlet pass beasley deflected and that’s a heck of a play yes it was cuz Anobi had an easy dunk beautiful i didn’t know Bees can get up that high so a minute 56 to go into third this was down 8678 [Applause] made it really interesting had it to 7271 but there’s an inbounds and a whistle and McBride thought he got fouled holland over there being aggressive like he normally is he’ll try it again anobi is going to get it in flips it to Brunson guarded by Holland brunson to Anobi’s had a big night 22 points got him bottled up off to Brunson seven to shoot and he will and the three off the front out of bounds to New York they say you can’t challenge it cuz you don’t have a challenge no you don’t 14 on the shot clock a minute 42 to go into third this is a 42% shooting on the night knicks 47 runs in from the right baseline into Anobi licked out bodies flying all over the place anobi to the basket missed it robinson missed on the put back reed with a rebound here’s Holland holland with Hart down there and we get a whistle holland never thinks that there’s a defender there he just barrels in a foul on Joshard yeah he does got to make these free throws though pistons have only have missed four at the line thompson has missed two of them so Ron Holland played 81 games most Piston rookie since Kyle Singler as he hits the free throw oh Kyle Singler remember that name wow dookie that was back in the That was way way back in the 201213 season played all 82 games what was it 11 guys this year played all 82 I think second free throws will make it it’s 86- 80 nicks with the lead minute 30 to go here’s Holland again trying to pester Deuce McBry as he brings it across got it to Brunson robinson trying to screen Shruder brunson goes to the corner and Anobi comes up short shruder with a rebound pistons want to run up the left wing he comes corner to Holland holland for three no and it’s slapped down brunson’s got it and now the Knicks have a break brunson all the way to the rim and that’s go from Reed a little late but I like the way his aggressiveness 8880 with a minute left in the third period it was up on the [Applause] board ke letting the ball roll here he picks it up then again just seven of 18 shooting in this game up top there’s Holland down the lane and he got knocked down to the surface he saw a lane he took it paid the price and free throws coming mson picks up the foul so that’s three on him so more important free throws here for Ron Holland the second he’s still 19 years old 19 how about that 19 out goodman College free throws to make you too i was 881 New [Applause] York holland with five and a couple of rebounds off the Piston bench and he’s hit all six of his free throws 8882 New York going to close him out here in this third bruce McBride will bring it across for the Knicks guarded by Holland mcbride back up to the Piston logo good hard screen now they trap him mcbride almost turned it over got it to Josh Hart hart sends it to Anobi anobi shot blocked by Cunningham with 4.7 seconds to go on the shot clock and he’s looking for a foul pistons are being aggressive got to play 4.7 seconds of defense here now brunson’s going to inbound it from the left baseline schroer will guard him a lot of holding right now brunson looking looking gets it in left corner deuce McBride for three 9182 New York holy mackerel this only a seventh point second seven points from the bench kane Cunningham with the basketball quieted down the crowd cunningham bounced pass there goes Holland again barreling to the basket puts it up no reed comes down with it and he got fouled finally got a call i thought Holland got fouled too so free throws coming for Paul Reed thank you Nickert during the season Reed got to the free throw line and made 76% of them he’s two for two tonight 18 and 12 seconds to go third period Pistons down nine to the Knicks knicks trying to get the lead back and Reed misses thompson back for Detroit towns and bridges in offense for defense beasley only a one for nine shooting night takes the seat harris 0 for five in this game scoring has had to come from some other areas got it from Hardway that’s for sure 21 13 from Shrew second one on the way for Reed and he makes that one so it’s a 91 83 Knicks lead still time for them jaylen Brunson will bring it across 18 six boards seven assists started by Dennis Shrew down to seven now six and five brunson to Bridges bridges baseline jumper over Reed is short hart puts it back up and in nobody blocked him out hardest working man in show business right now that’s a killer eight rebounds well the Knicks led by 13 at the half they lead by 10 after three 93 83 on the Pistons Radio Network caesar Sportsbook is the only sportsbook app with Caesar’s rewards that means win or lose every bet you place brings you closer to

tell you right now this run that the Pistons got to [Applause] [Music] continue in game one remember just shot well Beasley had six triples in game one but he has since that time he struggled both games two and three but here are the Pistons again only three down 104 101 with 441 to go out of time game four Sunday 1:00 game here at LCA before heading back to the Garden dennis Shruder played 26 minutes off the Piston bench had 18 and five rebounds the fans are back at it on their feet got to keep that defensive pressure on this Knicks team knicks like you said they play the starters a lot of minutes lot of minutes they’re all out there now hunson up the right sideline there is a foul by Shruder and Benny’s careful he’s got a technical kind of standing over Brunson there momentarily he

to Towns guarded by Harris who did a great job on him in game two good help defense by Duran slings it out to Hart hart trying to get it to Brunson does so with three seconds brunson driving pulling up dotted line and hit it oh well that’s why he won the clutch award this year cuz it’s in the clutch 106 to 101 game five points or closer in the final five minutes fourth in overtime and that’s right where he is hold by Anovi so he they grabbed so many shirts and he is huffing and puffing I tell you 356 still to go 106 101 New York he grabbed a whole bunch of shirts yes he did he never let it go i don’t know what he’s talking to Zach Zara about cunningham will get it in to Hardaway quickly back to Cade cunningham with a 22.9 assist knight picks up the dribble goes to Hardway look out dangerous reset cage’s got to get something up working it down turn shoots and it goes in and out to Josh Hard holy mackerel 106 to 101 cage just nine of 22 shooting brunson with the ball up the right sideline guarded by Shruder towns coming over to screen brunson moves to the right elbow brunson still dribbles now gives it up josh Hart for three oh halfway down and out loose ball shruder diving on the floor and maybe trying to get trying to get a timeout but they call a jump ball it’s just Brunson and and Shruder on his back so is Brunson they both got kind of a head-on collision in that wrist shruder got his right hand on it and then Brunson and Shruder collided and Duran got in there so going to be a jump ball 315 to go in regulation 106 101 New York game three all you could want here so they’re going to say Duran will jump it up so obviously he has the height advantage on Jaylen Brunson criminal is losing it trying to get everybody set on the circle here everybody getting a little anxious cunningham and Anobi battling for position they should do it like roller derby just let him go at it [Applause] all right here we go [Applause] and Durham just slapped it out of bounds oh you had to hide it and just [Applause] he just tapped it wasn’t ain’t going to out jump you if you stood the only thing I can figure out is he thought there was somebody over there in the corner so the Knicks get the ball and it goes to Hart the right sideline gives it up to Towns 27point game for him towns holding with a big right paw against Harris whirls around baseline and hits oh that was a big time shot right there that time out timeout with 301 to go and the New York Knicks have four of their starters with 20 plus points and they lead it 108 to 101 29 for Towns let the cat out the bag 22 for Anobi 22 for Brunson with nine assists and seven rebounds and 20 for Mikuel Bridges who’s hit some timely threes pistons Academy summer camp early registration is available children grades 3

Detroit save $30 when you register before June 2nd visit pistonsacademy.com/camp to register now well still a lot of time 301 to go but every time the Pistons get to within one or two or three the Knicks seem to kind of wake up and put a push on this has been heck of a series i think a lot of people thought this would be a really good series i did and you know what it’s a team that you know you got to feel that you can beat i mean Pistons beat the Knicks twice at Madison Square Garden beat them in game two so they’ve beaten them the last three trips three of the four last at the Garden tell you you’re looking at that jump ball right there that could be that was that was huge that was a killer all right Dennis Shruder Carolina Blue Shoes on slips it to Harris with Josh Hart all over him floats a tough pass to Cunningham on the left sideline guarded by Anovi Jade trying to back him down slips a pass to a cutter Harris and it’s blocked 2.7 seconds to go as Carl Anthony Towns and Josh Hart close down the lane cunningham will get it in for Detroit for the left baseline down by seven quickly to Hardway short on a three but Duran is there to clean it up with a dunk we know Al Zo 108 to 103 New York AD with 14 and seven rebounds 225 in ticket here at LCA josh Hart with the basketball to Brunson a lot of congestion on that side of the floor and that’s a foul on towns screening Harris and this is just all in his face surprised he could have easily gotten teed up on that one 214 to go 108 103 New York kade on the move splits the New York defense and scores right at Towns and it’s a onepossession game 108 to 105 two minutes to go kell Bridges with Hardaway on him left side of the floor pres to Brunson brunson with Schroer on him holding with nine on the shot clock 108 105 knicks jab step now brunson on the drive the pull up and he misses paid with a rebound a triple would tie the game you don’t necessarily need that cunningham right side of the floor taking control robin and we Oh he makes a spin on and then Towns blocks it and takes it away out of the break is Brunson and lays it in at the other end holy mackerel 110 105 left side hardway short legs are not as sprry as they were in the first half and here come the Knicks with a minute 10 to go and they’re up five this is the critical possession right here pistons have two timeouts remaining here goes Blenson to the basket another layup going to his left and just like that and they’ve done it all night going to his strong hand jaylen Brunson 26 points and the lead is 7 112 to 105 with 59 seconds remaining two huge baskets by Brunson going to his strong hand brunson nine of 20 but he has accounted for a bunch of points here with those nine assists and the seven rebounds he’s had a but once again I mean his clutch flex why he won the clutch player of the year award one of the reasons you’re getting a an idea of why he did so the Pistons game not over but they’re certainly down to their last attempts here if not it’ll be a 2-1 Knicks lead in the series with game four here on Sunday at 1:00 a chance to tie it up at two heading back to New York you kind of have a feel might this might be a seven game series surprise you know what i I penciled it down for seven games and I got to you know and I made sure that Pistons need to get another one in New York if this one happens tonight out of the [Applause] timeout this point you got to get a quick bucket here no turnover pistons have had 13 knicks have had 10 turnovers pistons actually have a plus six in points off turnovers kade to get it in from the right sideline finds Hardway guarded by Brunson slide to the left side beasley no hesitation three is good that’s what you needed 112 to 108 New York 51 seconds you don’t need to foul here brunson with Kade on his right hip cunningham playing with four fouls doesn’t matter at this point this two man game with him in town bunson Towns Harris on it towns barrels and got a whistle foul on the floor i don’t know how you stop that i mean you got a 260lb guy that can put the ball on the floor like he did and he hooks he hooks Tobias Harris it’s like boy referee Shawn Wright right there he’s getting an air full from Tobias [Applause] and he deserves five for five at the line knicks have only missed one free throw all night 20 of [Applause] 21 34.9 seconds to go and he hits another one 30 30 points for him 113 to 108 pistons have a timeout remaining lakes actually have a foul to [Applause] [Music] give second free throw for Carl Anthony Towns that’s good 114 108 New York two full possession lead with 34.9 kate’s going to let the ball roll i wouldn’t do that i wasn’t forcing to pick it up here’s Kade on the move spins to the basket drops it off to Duran for a dunk 114 110 now you got a foul pretty much i mean but Brunson’s getting away got all the way to midcourt used up probably an extra second and a half hardway had no choice now you got a guy who’s seven to seven at the free throw line brunson and Towns both seven to seven [Applause] so if the Pistons have to make an adjustment Rick for game four what would it be i mean you got to get Tobias Harrison you got to get your front court involved early makes it easier on your your guards lunson hits that’s the dagger right there 115 to 110 23.4 to go in the game [Applause] so Towns has led him with 31 he took a lot of criticism he came for his second half in game two and he came with it yes he did inside and out brunson makes 116 to 110 New York you can’t roll the ball down now not now cunningham on the move stops fires a three and it spins out 15.3 to go it’s going to stay with Detroit [Applause] [Music] need the old miracle here now got to give it to the Knicks i mean Cunningham left corner beasley three on the way ew in and out duran couldn’t come up with the rebound and the Knicks are going to get away with this they’re going to call a jump ball they’re going to say that he’s calling timeout yeah he’s trying to bridges got tied up there doesn’t really matter a whole lot though 8.6 seconds remaining picks up 116 to 110 well we had a great crowd here tonight a lot of them are heading to the exits right now but fantastic energy in this yeah just hopefully it’ll be the same Sunday tap the to hard away and he hits a three 116 113 5.8 seconds to go you commit the foul well they call timeout timeout check that time out so they can advance the ball move it to the front court only down three well stranger things have happened so a timeout for the New York Knicks knicks won 51 games during the season the most they had won in a year since the 201213 year when they went 54 [Music] john Thibido if he gets the win here would be 16 and 16 in the playoffs with the New York Knicks so here you got to just if you don’t get the steel steel quick steel or the foul then you got to [Music] you get a time then you can use your time out both teams have one remaining the margin of error in this these in all three of these games have been yeah This been something i mean game one I mean the Knicks had that 21- nothing run so that one but game two was terrific it was 9494 when Dennis Shruder hit that three make it 9794 they go on to win it 100 to 94 and then right now this game has been where the Pistons make a move nick’s answer back and forth yep now you got Hollands and Assur Thompson in there you got your defenders in there guys you can see oh here we go here we go with this well Holland’s Holland’s in the middle of just Well you got to don’t want to do anything just silly not going to use those other words well we’ll try it again kell Bridges from the left sideline looking to get it in and he throws it in the back court and Brunson is fouled by Thompson that used up couple of seconds two and a half seconds 3.5 seconds remaining mhm and you got Brunson nine for nine at the free throw line got to hope you miss both of them towns was seven of seven they only missed one as a team but the Pistons have actually it’s dead even after these two free throws be 2727 mhm brunson will have had 11 [Music] [Applause] is looking at a replay you can’t you can’t challenge it no you can’t you can go back but they’re looking at it but you can go you can go back you can go back in the back court yeah you can’t i’m not sure what they were upset about i don’t know what they I mean so Brunson hits and that’ll pretty much do it 117 to 113 duran’s coming in was trying to gobble up the rebound well I mean I’m not quite sure what they were upset about so Brunson will if he makes this will have 30 in all three of the playoff games and he missed it and a quick timeout by JB and he’s after Jaylen D jaylen didn’t call the timeout because if you pass that ball ahead you can’t get the timeout nope can’t or you can’t get the ball to the front yeah you can’t advance it so we’re down to 2.8 seconds unfortunately it’s a four-point game so the Pistons would need to hit a three and get fouled what do you suppose the odds are on that i mean odds of having that or maybe New York will follow him and just we’ll just let him score so for the Pistons tonight you got Cade with 24 10 assists and seven rebounds so coming off that game two where he had 33 12 rebounds and he had 21 and 12 assists in game one and so this will be three consecutive double doubles to begin his playoff career that’s pretty special 24 for Tim Hardaway seven triple makes yeah he was having a outstanding game in the first half just couldn’t get it going and it’s good to see Malik Beasley zero in on a couple of his shots hardway’s seven by the way tai Chanty Bilips for the most threes in a playoff game for the [Applause] Pistons all right out of the timeout well we certainly hope in game four Sunday that Malik Beasley will be shooting lights out well Mitchell Robinson’s going to guard the ball and you can’t ask for anybody taller to do that all right Cade looking to get it in quickly harris fires and hits with a second and a half to go and a whistle it’s a one-point game 117 to 116 but only a half second less they put anything more on the clock they can’t put anything on there use it up that’s what Kade and Tim Hardaway are asking trying to get everything right so really if the Knicks hit the first one they they could easily just miss the second one as long as they hit the iron so we got a long discussion going on here cade with Shawn Wright i don’t know why they’re discussing it i mean it is what it is so Brunson 10 of 11 back at the free throw line 117 116 New York and he hits the first one 118 to 116 [Applause] the only thing if he makes this the Pistons at least have a chance to throw one [Music] yeah they do you know you know I think I think you missed this one he can yeah that’s what he does and that’s the game no it’s still time on the clock somebody’s got to touch the ball and you just gave the Pistons a chance if it’s right they can take the ball out and but they can’t really no time out so the officials are gathered to discuss this play [Applause] but I kind of I kind of thought that’s what they would do it bounced nobody touched it i mean bounced high in the air off the rim jb okay so I I see what they’re they’re talking about so now the officials will come over and look at this thing play is being reviewed for a clock malfunction oh clock malfunction look at that it was another play that the that the Knicks got the ball with 24 seconds and it should have been 17 seconds on the shot clock these games have game one was 2 hours 32 minutes game two was 2 hours 37 minutes this one’s got to be the longest one of the three between the little dust ups we had in the first half all the free throws [Music] so this will be interesting see if there is any time left but nobody like you said Rick nobody got the ball so right now the Knicks lead 118 to 116 number of the fans have stopped in the row after reviewing the inadvertent clock starts imminent possession belongs to Detroit they’ll receive the ball on the sideline with 5/10 well on the sideline or the baseline on the baseline the sideline he said sideline but that doesn’t seem right well you can catch and shoot with 510 let’s see how the Knicks defend i’m [Applause] seeing Oh thank you very much they can’t advance the ball all sorts mcbride was trying to get in the game sideline over here yeah three quarter for so they got to throw something at the basket well there’s Mitchell Robinson he’s going to go down and guard the ball i rather have Mitchell Robinson down there where the basket is cuz you still catch and shoot right let’s see what the Pistons design here durham’s going to get it in bounds eventually nick Hooker gives him the ball no he’s Oh D he There’s a pass and he throws it out of bounds threw it to Reggie Miller and that’s twice now it’s twice that he’s done that he’s done that a couple of things i mean Kate had broken open at least would have had a chance now it’s it’s over and he called timeout folks yeah 510 of a second what a weird way to end the game some couple of weird plays 118 to 116 New York so they’re half a second away from going up 2-1 in this series what a series it is so far man so never seen anything like this Mark so a big mistake there on the inbounds pass jump ball you had a Yeah the jump ball where where Duran just slapped the ball out of bounds i mean it was even close it’s different i mean this first playoff experience there’s a lot a lot going on you figure out after a series like this that the playoffs are a whole different animal it’s a different animal pressure comes in different faces and and looking at the Knicks bench they only got like what eight points or nine points yeah they’ve got four players with 103 points four players with 103 points but that’s the way they roll this year for the most part all right 510 next ball i don’t even I’m not sure what the miracle would be here but Bridges will get it in does so brunson in the corner and that’s a game so the New York Knicks will take a 2-1 lead in the Eastern Conference opening round series and the Pistons will have to fight back on Sunday at 1:00 game four to try to even it up it’s the Knicks 118 and the Pistons 116 on the Pistons Radio Network are you ready Detroit the Pistons are back to work

pricing for upcoming rounds and access to our meet the team event visit pistons.com/membership to get yours today mark Rick back with you at LCA kia brought you to break man what a fantastic job our fans did here tonight filled the building and made a whole lot of noise and major factor in the Piston comebacks and rallies and uh and runs and uh but the Knicks at the end of the day came out on top the Pistons in that fourth quarter shot 56% they were 14 of 25 five of 11 from three-point range but Jaylen Brunson in the fourth quarter scored 12 points and again that’s one of the reasons he won the clutch player of the year award in the NBA so looking at the numbers Pistons shoot overall 45% 39 of 86 16 out of 37 that’s 43% from three-point range although Beasley was only 2 for 10 free throws to 22 of 27 a 4340 Piston advantage in rebounding 119 off the offensive glass pistons did pick up the pace in moving that ball a little bit they finished with 22 assists 11 of those by Cade six steals and four blocks 14 turnovers but the Knicks only got nine points while the Pistons got 18 off of 11 Knicks turnovers 46% shooting for New York 12 triples and they hit 26 of 29 for the free throw line brunson alone was 11 of 13 we want to But we don’t want to hear Tom Thibido chirping about free throws free throws yeah uh individual scoring kate Cunningham with his third consecutive double double in these playoffs 24 points with 11 assists he had seven rebounds four steals two blocks two triples man just continues to play at an allp pro level tim Hardaway got off to a red-hot start finished with seven triples that ties Chanty Bilips Piston playoff record four threes in a game tim finished seven out of 12 long range 16 eight boards three assists for Jaylen Dur who was seven out of 10 shooting seven points asar Thompson along with four assists three rebounds and a steal tobias uh two for nine shooting finished with five six rebounds and a steal off the bench Dennis Shruder in just under 30 minutes 18 points five rebounds and two assists 12 points for Malik Beasley but just two for 10 from three-point range ron Holland had six with a block shot and a couple of rebounds four points eight rebounds and a block shot for Paul Reed for the Knicks 31 for Towns 30 for Brunson with nine assists seven rebounds 22 for OG Anobi and 20 for Mikuel Bridges those four were able to help the Knicks corral the victory and take a 2-1 lead Rick so what do you have to clean up what do you uh what do you look for in game four well you look at for those uh turnovers that at crucial times and I thought it was the the jump ball with Duran mhm that was you know kind of like he’s trying to out jump he’s going to out jump um Jaylen Brunson but the fact is he he slapped it so hard nobody could get it yeah nobody was there and then even with the out of bounds plays few things that they need to just clean up and that’s just let’s move the ball well we’ll see you on Sunday remember one:00 game so an early game as the Pistons will try to even this series at two apiece let the fans I tell you thank the fans yeah well we did that we continue to to do that we hope the building will be loud noisy and filled up once again on Sunday want to thank all of our folks who make our broadcast go paul Sarah our network coordinator Tim Jetsky our engineer producer chris Far will take you the rest of the way in the post game to wrap this up look at all the the other two games that are scheduled for tonight in the NBA so the New York Knicks come to town and get the homecourt advantage back final score New York 118 the Pistons 116 for Rick Mahorn this is Mark Champion saying so long detroit Pistons basketball on the Detroit Pistons Radio Network this is the Pistons Tonight postgame show on the Pistons radio network here’s your host Chris Farar a welcome into the postgame the Pistons were hoping to earn the first playoff win in LCA history tonight the city was lit up blue tons of former players Tigers Pistons and celebrities in attendance but the big win will have to wait for another time the boys just could not overcome that early lead of the Knicks who kept pulling back away every time Detroit got something going and in the end a 118 to 116 final score that puts New York back up two games to one
