0 for two on this trip. Walsh misses and finally cleared by Cunningham. The leak out to Duran and run service at the other end for Detroit. Detroit back defensively in transition. Pritchard finds Brown. Walsh tries another three and he wins it. Culture that the Pistons have established in the short time. There’s part of the culture right there during There’s Shyman also on the court. Step back three. Richard Good. And his poise, his pace, the way that he plays. He doesn’t get rushed. He doesn’t get rattled. Brown left that one on the front rim. Cunningham in a rush. Kade slams it home. Bird off the screen. He get another primary ball handle. That’s a great nine to cut.

Amazing that it even got there. Holland off glass. Simons find it from deep. Got it. And one with 16 points against Orlando. He’s a guy who’s been in and out of the starting lineup. He’s been ready with his numbers cold by Williams. And on the break almost minus comes up with it. What a block by Holland. Oh. put it on pause. Incredible defensive effort. Both guys getting back. Holland elevating working against Jenkins. Jenkins, another great story for this Piston squad. Shyman. Great footwork and delivers a soft jumper. Got a little bit of food here on Shyman. One more to Jenkins, one more to Holland. Drives baseline and the reverse because he was burning. And look, that that’s their competitive edge, their unique skill sets going against one another every day. I mean, they’re two of the most unique dynamic players in this league. Ivy with pace into the front court. Got it knocked away, taken away by Derek White. Not letting his offense impact his defense. And Mini Ivy was having a great year before he got injured last year, shooting 40% from deep. ISO post play by Harris and one. When in doubt, give it to the Sage Ky veteran. No doubt. I mean, he just baited Hower right here. Look at him just intentional about getting that on Walsh back to Pritchard. Three ball. Got it. And we’re tied at 45. Would be 3 and 0 if Detroit wins here tonight. Boston with a loss would be eliminated. Brown with other thoughts to the victory lap and fell. Soft touch. I mean, this is just a heck of a play. And we talked about his usage rate is up. His field goal percentage is up. Harris picks up Pritchard in transition. Snatch back by Brown in his bag like a fries. We’re at the bottom.

Isaiah Stewart trying to post up Brown. It comes to Robinson. Bounce pass to Thompson in rush hour traffic. able to convert. You sit him. What would make me a little concerned was that he picked up his fifth in their first matchup. At about this time in the third and when that happened, Detroit went on a 21-9 run. So, he probably goes with him for a little bit longer. Let’s see how he plays it out to Ivy into the corner. Levert drives by Shyman. Cunningham pulls it at the expiration of the shot clock. Cashes out. Let it fly. Knocking it down. He is absolutely clutch. He’s 47 from deep as well. May not wide open room service for Walsh.

This is a guy who’s been in a pro system since he was 9 years old. Played played professionally on the big club since he was 16. Ivy inside and one. And this is an area he can just be really special. his ability to slash to the rim. Here’s Cunningham. May not switches on to him. Bullies his way inside. Wow. Cunningham. Stewart inside with the emphatic punch. He says it with his chest there. Well, they’ve got to do a better job of defending the three-point line. The Celtics had plus 24 advantage from that distance. Early in the ball game, they were running him off the three, making him shoot tough twos. Great answer. Stewart with a bone crushing screen. There’s another one for Robinson. Back to Levert and he rattles it home. They like to flare Brown off of that screen. There it is. Rips through and drives. Clear pass to the bucket and the slam. Jaylen Brown. This has got to be the difference for the Celtics. Finishing plays, one shot, no multiple possessions. White. Another three. Got it. Oh, he’s on all night like a porch light.
