Detroit Pistons

Detroit surprised everyone on the road in the second match of the series on April 22, defeating New York - 100:94. They only took the first and third quarters, but it was enough to snatch the victory. Cade Cunningham was like the engine of the team — a double-double (33 points, 12 rebounds, three assists), a real leader. Tobias Harris added his double-double (15 points, 13 rebounds), Jaylen Duren also did not lag behind (12 points, 13 rebounds). Dennis Schroeder contributed 20 points. J.B. Bickerstaff's team (44 wins, 38 losses) finished sixth in the East, but now they are proving that they are ready to bite in the playoffs.

The New York Knicks were one step away from overtime in the same match on April 22 at their home Madison Square Garden, but they lacked accuracy in the end.

Tom Thibodeau's team (51 wins, 31 losses) finished third in the East, but the loss of home advantage in the series makes them play with renewed vigor now.

1.87Tip and bets
Detroit showed in the second match that they are not just whipping boys — Cunningham, Harris and Duren pulled out the victory, stealing the advantage of the court from the Knicks. But New York is a team with experience and character. Thibodeau probably shook up the guys, and they'll go out in Detroit like they're going to war. Brunson will tear up the defense, but Towns will be the key—if he turns on like he did on his best days, the Knicks will turn the series around. The Pistons are on guard, their defense has become tighter, but I believe New York will find the answer. We are waiting for a hard-fought match, where the guests will gnaw out the victory due to class and accurate shots in the end.
Our betting tip is for New York to win by a handicap of (-1.5) points, including overtime in 1.93
Bet on the total
The first game yielded 235 points, the second dropped to 194 — Detroit tightened the screws on defense, and New York lost its rhythm. But in the third match, we are waiting for a surge — the Knicks will attack more aggressively, and the Pistons will not sit out at home. Both teams are able to produce bright segments, but without the crazy fireworks.
Our betting tip is a total of more than 215.5 points, including overtime in 2.05
The bet on the player
Towns failed in the second match — only ten points after 23 in the first. It's like a call for a leader. But he'll come out in Detroit with fire in his eyes. He'll turn on beast mode and dial his own to help Nyx regain control of the series.
Our betting tip is a total over Towns of 22.5 points in 1.87
