Grading the Detroit Pistons win over the New York Knicks
By David Topham
The Detroit Pistons (3-1) notched their third-straight double-digit victory with a 102-89 win over the New York Knicks (1-2).
The Detroit Pistons scored a season-high 64 first half points on their way to beating the Knicks by 13 points on Tuesday night. The offense cooled down in the second half, but Detroit still made the plays down the stretch to secure the victory. The Pistons finished the game on an 8-0 run and astoundingly held the Knicks scoreless across the game’s final 5:39. Led by the trio of Marcus Morris, Tobias Harris, and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Detroit also made 8 of 13 (61.5 percent) from the three-point line. Now for the grades.
