For the Pistons, winning this game won't improve the team's current rankings, but that's not the case for other teams. Before this game, the Hawks and nets had the same record, and if the Hawks won the game, the Nets would slide to 9th in the East.
The Pistons didn't let the Hawks take advantage of the opportunity, and they played very well in this game, and under Cunningham's leadership, they beat the Hawks through overtime. After this game, the Hawks are still in 10th place in the East, and there is a 0.5-game difference between the Nets, and the Pistons have sent a wave of warmth to the Nets, allowing them to maintain their current ranking.
In addition to sending warmth to the Nets, it has to be said that the Pistons have been too good in recent times. Although so far this season, their record has not been ideal, ranking at the bottom of the East for a long time, and basically missed the playoffs. But this young team at the end of the season, they found the feeling of winning, the rapid growth of young players, made them more competitive.
In the past 8 games, the Pistons have beaten the Raptors, Pacers, Eagles, Hornets, Cavaliers and Celtics to achieve a record of 6 wins and 2 losses, which is very good. In the past 8 games, cunningham Cunningham has averaged 21 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists per game, and he is undoubtedly a key player for the Pistons to usher in a recent performance. In terms of other players, Grant has also performed very well after his return, and the cooperation between him and Cunningham is becoming more and more tacit, and the presence at both ends of the attack and defense is also very strong. Bagley, who was traded to the Pistons, is also well integrated into the team's tactical system here, performing well on the bench and becoming the team's main rotation player recently.
The Pistons are in very good shape right now, although for them, they can't make it to the playoffs anymore. But the team's goal this season is not the playoffs, they still want to develop young players and find a player who can become the leader of the team. For now, the Pistons have been successful this season, they have cultivated Cunningham very well, making him the leader of this team, if not injured, Cunningham will become the team's key player back to the playoffs, the team leader for many years to come.
