    So damn close. Exciting nonetheless. Will remain stupidly locked-in watching the Pistons until they win

  2. ‪We are getting mercilessly slandered for being down 21 and going to OT. But the Pistons’ streak continues. Piston and Celtics fans lose tonight ‬

  3. ComfortableOven97

    Stevie Wonder could’ve seen that Celtics comeback coming.

    Should’ve betted at halftime.

  4. ProfessorBeast55

    Thanks a lot Celtics 😑

    Don’t worry Pistons; y’all got the Raptors next at home. Ain’t no way they lose that, right? RIGHT??!!

  5. amari_prince

    I was gonna make a joke but the way they lost this game…it’s just sad man 🙁

  6. KingREX_24

    Unironically the greatest NBA game I’ve ever watched. I’m fucking nervous for Saturday.

  7. Sc0rch1ngDr4g0n

    Cade Cunningham had 22 points by the half. He had 9 the rest of the way. His shooting was efficient all the way through. What the hell Monty?

  8. DaveM1299

    Haven’t been following standings much, but I really don’t want to face this Pistons team in the playoffs. Great game.

  9. GGezpzMuppy

    So glad the writers strike is over, this new Detroit storyline, is literally must watch tv lol

  10. bllr32423

    Lmao I love this league. Who would’ve thought this matchup would make for one of the best games this season

  11. HereForTOMT2

    #YOU JUST HAD TO GO TO OVERTIME AGAINST THE 2023 DETROIT PISTONS

  12. Propuhganduh

    Kind of ironic how this felt like a playoff game

  13. CakeBossUltimate

    Pistons getting treated like the KD Warriors with how hard teams are playing them 😭

  14. Never in my life have I been so sure that the team up 20 points will find a way to lose the game

  15. simon2105

    We are blessed to have NBA Finals game 7 level basketball just before the new year, this is unprecedented.

    ADAM SILVER YOU NEED TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO REPRODUCE THIS PRODUCT!

  16. Jokes aside, this has got to be one of the best games this season so far

  17. Apollo611

    Adam Silver cheesing right now. A random League Pass game getting this much attention he probably wants the Pistons to keep losing

  18. KiryuXGoro

    The funny thing about all of this is that Detroit are a must watch team now. They haven’t had game threads with thousands of comments since the last time they were in the playoffs and that was 5 years ago.

  19. MTing1315

    Man the Celtics barely escaped generational slander

  20. aaronrodgersparents

    As a diehard Pistons fan for the past 3 days boy I tell you this team is incredibly frustrating to watch. 10/10 as advertised.
