The New York Knicks, leading 3-2 in their playoff series against the Detroit Pistons, are looking to clinch a second-round berth. Despite a tense Game Five where the Knicks struggled in the third quarter but later surged back, the team is now fully healthy with Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart ready to play. The Knicks' defense, bolstered by players like OG Anunoby and Mikal Bridges, is significant as they aim to quiet Detroit's home crowd, which has witnessed the Pistons lose their last nine playoff games at home.
The New York Knicks head to Detroit tonight up 3-2, aiming to close out the Pistons and move on to round two of the Eastern Conference Playoffs.
Game Five was tight. New York took an early lead but collapsed in the third quarter, allowing Cade Cunningham to take over late in the game.
Detroit had lost nine straight playoff games at home and the Knicks hope to make it ten.
Fear not. The Knicks still hold the edge. Defense travels, and OG Anunoby, Mikal Bridges, and Hart are playing well.
