The publication makes predictions for the first round playoff series of the Knicks-Pistons:
Stefan Bondy
Knicks have the talent advantage, training advantage and the advantage of experimenting. There should be a confluence of negative events for them to do so, and predicted that it won.
Prediction: Knicks in 6
Peter Botte
The formally oppressed Knicks are easily the most experienced playoff team here, and it is difficult to imagine that Jalen Brunson does not rise again to the occasion and, ultimately, it is an issue that is willing to beyond the dynamic Cunningham and its chippy pistons.
Prediction: Knicks in 6
Zach Brown
This won to be easy. The Pistons do not fear the Knicks and steal one of the first two games in the garden. But Brunson is the best player in this series, and takes the Knicks beyond Detroit in a MSG memorable game.

Prediction: Knicks in 7
Brian Lewis
The Knicks still stop discovering how to underpin their defense, and Cunningham has lit them throughout the season. But they could slow it with OG Anunoby and have an advantage in experience and talent in the rest of the alignment. If you can keep your legs from your fresh entrants, they will squeeze through the pistons … barely.
Prediction: Knicks in 7
Jared Schwartz
The Knicks stumbled until the end of the regular season and the Pistons looked like a privileged confrontation for them in their four games against each other. They will push the Knicks to the edge, but the Knicks have a more offensive power and fire experience, which will make a difference. It is not the time of the Pistons yet.
Prediction: Knicks in 7
Mike Vaccaro
It has become a popular sport to make holes in the Knicks and pump the pistons, and both are at least fair. But the Knicks are healthy and salty. The pistons are coming but they are not there yet.
Prediction: Knicks in 5
