The Pistons pulled off a 106-103 win over the Knicks in Game 5, but New York still holds a 3-2 advantage. Detroit will once again look to stay alive, as the Knicks are one win away from advancing to the second round.

Cade Cunningham and Ausar Thompson were in attack mode in the last game as each took 12 free throws and finished with over 20 points. Cunningham ended up with 24 points, eight rebounds, and eight assists, and he will likely need to repeat that performance if the Pistons want to force a Game 7.

No New York player reached the 20-point mark in their last time out, but all five starters scored at least 15. They are going to need a big game out of either Jalen Brunson or Karl-Anthony Towns to seal the deal. The Knicks' two leading scorers combined to shoot 9-30 from the field in Game 5, which is not good enough from their All-NBA players.

This is a great NBA matchup that will not disappoint; make sure to tune in and catch all the action.
