The Regular Season is merely an appetizer to the main course, that is, the NBA Playoffs. Teams play with all their strength and leave no stone unturned at the highest level. The battles between the middle playoff teams are the most interesting as the series can swing either way at a hat&rsquo;s drop. On that note, here is a look at the upcoming first-round series between the third-seeded New York Knicks and the&nbsp;<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New York Knicks vs Detroit Pistons Season Series &amp; Preview<\/h2><p>Interestingly, the Knicks lost the season series 1-3 against the Pistons. Their only win came in early November, when New York thumped Detroit by 30 points. After that, Pistons beat them by 9, 5, and 9 points in successive order. The Pistons scored in the 115-124 range during their wins and limited the Knicks to 111 and below in two of those games. Thus, they will enter the series with some edge here.<\/p><p>During the last losses, the Knicks had no answer for Cunningham. He rained 36, 29, and 36 points in the successive order, a huge reason behind Detroit&rsquo;s dominance over New York. Meanwhile, before his injury, Knicks lead guard Jalen Brunson was also dominating the Pistons.<\/p><p>He had 30 or more in three straight games, but is he in the same mojo after the injury that caused him to miss multiple weeks? The Knicks will need him to be prepared to counter the Cunningham threat, or the series can flip. Meanwhile, Karl-Anthony Towns also needs to play out of his skin to get a decisive advantage over Jalen Duren in the middle, which he most likely will.<\/p><p><strong>Knicks Expected Starting Lineup<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>PG<\/strong>: Jalen Brunson | <strong>SG<\/strong>: Josh Hart | <strong>SF<\/strong>: Mikal Bridges | <strong>SF<\/strong>: OG Anunoby | <strong>C<\/strong>: Karl-Anthony Towns<\/p><p><strong>Pistons Expected Starting Lineup<\/strong><br><strong>PG<\/strong>: Cade Cunningham | <strong>SG<\/strong>: Tim Haradaway Jr. | <strong>SF<\/strong>: Ausar Thompson | <strong>PF<\/strong>: Tobias Harris | <strong>C<\/strong>: Jalen Duren<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New York Knicks Vs Detroit Pistons Playoff Player Props<\/h2><p><strong>Josh Hart to average over 9.6 rebounds per game for -115<\/strong><\/p><p>Josh Hart tallied 9.6 RPG during the Regular Season.

He turned up with 16 PPG in three games against the Pistons, but I believe he will accumulate 19 PPG.<\/p><p><strong>Cade Cunningham to average over 25.9 points per game for -115<\/strong><\/p><p>Cunningham accumulated 26.1 PPG during the Regular Season and put on a show versus the Knicks. He averaged 30.5 points per game against the Knicks, and I believe he will hover around a similar number here.<\/p><p><strong>Jalen Duren to average over 10.4 rebounds pr game for -115<\/strong><\/p><p>Duren racked up 10.5 RPG during the Regular Season. He collected just 8.25 RPG against the Knicks in the Regular Season, but his current rhythm suggests he will be closer to the 11 RPG mark.<\/p><p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Main pick:<\/strong> <strong>Josh Hart to average O <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-BetMGM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'><strong>9.6 rebounds per game for -115<\/strong> <strong>at BetMGM<\/strong><\/a><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New York Knicks vs Detroit Pistons Series Prediction<\/h2><p>Cunningham is New York&rsquo;s biggest headache. His ability to take over games has burned the Knicks many times. NY must be craving for Jalen Brunson to rediscover his high-scoring ways, or they can be in trouble. But the ascension of OG Anunoby can quell some of their fears.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Meanwhile, KAT can also provide a distinguishable advantage in the middle, which can turn the tide in favor of his team. Overall, I expect the Pistons to give the Knicks a couple of hiccups, but the Knicks will probably win the series in six games.&nbsp;<\/p><p class=\"has-vivid-red-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-02e0de139aa6062289ab2e114bba18cf\"><strong>New York Knicks to win the series: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-BetMGM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>-350 at BetMGM<\/a><\/strong><\/p><p><strong>Photo Credit<\/strong>: David Reginek-Imagn Images<\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-global mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The NBA fans wait for the NBA Playoffs like the NFL fans wait for the Super Bowl.

I am currently an NBA Predictions Writer on The Playoffs. I enjoy this job because it helps keep me in the loop about the game I love while fulfilling the pleasure I derive from stats. I got into NBA writing through social media interactions in the mid-2010s as I shared my takes on young talents such as D\u2019Angelo Russell. I hope you enjoy reading my pieces as much as Dennis Rodman loved rebounding the basketball!","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/shubham-singh-498421175\/"],"url":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/author\/shubham-singh\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39392"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=39392"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39392\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":39404,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39392\/revisions\/39404"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/39402"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39392"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=39392"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=39392"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
