The No. 6 seed Detroit Pistons will be matching up against the third-seed New York Knicks in the first round of the NBA playoffs, with Game 1 tipping off on Saturday.
The Pistons will hope Game 1 of the playoff series will go better than their first game against the Knicks in the regular season, where the Knicks dominated early on their way to a 30-point win at Little Caesars Arena.
But if the Pistons’ current trend against the Knicks has any merit, as they currently have a three-game win streak against New York, Detroit might soon have to make plans for a second-round matchup.
