The Detroit Pistons find themselves down 3-1 to the New York Knicks and facing potential elimination at Madison Square Garden on Tuesday. It’s been a series of tough beats for the Pistons, who have been on the wrong side of one-possession games twice in this series. Once, they couldn’t effectively get a shot in-bounds for a miracle attempt. In the other, they got two shots to go ahead, but the second had no chance because of a no-call the NBA later admitted was a mistake. For the series, the Knicks are only +8. In other words, this is not the shellacking that the Thunder put on the Grizzlies or the Cavaliers put on the Heat.
