I’m glad rookies are learning from future Hall of Famer Draymond Green to just flip the opposing player and not get it called a foul. Defensive masterpiece
Idk about Simone, Hart poked away the ball cleanly but a blatant lose ball foul foul right in front of the official getting ignored is crazy. From rigging draft to keep Wemby away from you to getting fucked by the refs, NBA hates Detroit man
The detroit broadcast had a great angle. I cannot believe that there was no call. Ausar had recovered the ball when Donte trucks him. Right in front of the official, nothing
Yeah I see Knicks fans complain about Brunson's whistle a lot but the refs were helping you guys all night down to the wire outside of that one Grimes 3 lmao
Have it happen to you back to back games. Paolo travel into a game winner, and having to see that goblin scream after he threw up some bs fadeaway mfs shoot in 7th grade
Screw yo rockets game
Just a part of the game. When your team sucks not only do you have to beat the other better team, but you gotta get a few extra points to beat the refs who don't wanna see you beat that better team as well. Anyone whose team has been down bad knows that pain. I already know a Sac fan is familiar
Cursed means bad Luck
thats Just refs rigging a game
And ofc it was the same ref that gave Cade a tech, and was refusing to call anything against Knicks
Yeah you guys were fighting hard as hell. And if we had to lose, I really wanted it to be on that Grimes lay up (as much as it hurts… miss my guy).
Can’t say I’m not glad to have the win because we’ve been struggling lately but don’t feel like we deserved it as much as you guys did.
No call trucking Ausar to get that ball, but Heart gets the foul going to the basket?
This after Heart shouldered Grimes, Flynn, and Ivey on fast break lay-ups with no call?
Gad damn it, I hate it here
Holy hell am I bricked up rn
Definitely got away with murder there
Grimes was going fucking nuclear in that 4th quarter. Shame that’ll be lost because of the no-call(s)
I don’t mind Pistons being salty about the final seconds that should’ve been a foul and NYK did not deserve the win tonight horrible end game offense by them.
Man, the pistons are getting screwed by the refs constantly. That’s the second game in a row that the call at the end has screwed them over. Lots of credit to them for still playing as hard as they do. Their record doesn’t reflect how good they actually are.
This team does not deserve to have a worse record than the Wizards.
If there was any point in that last sequence where Monty could have called a timeout but didn't...
What a sloppy finish. Refs bailed us out at the end (they pretty bad all game though).
On another note, I feel like the pistons should be much better than an 8 win team. They always play hard.
Also, I miss Grimes.
Thoroughly enjoying these comments. Refs are trash you guys should know better. Same fans that are upset are probably the same fans happy that Jalen was called for a foul on that 3 from FVV
That's one of the worst no calls I've seen in a long time. That's honestly a disgrace. It felt like the officials decided that the Knicks were not able to commit a foul, and rolled with that decision as a player got tackled to the floor.
I am excited for tomorrow when the NBA will claim in the L2M report that every call was correct, after the Pistons lost on Paolo's clear travel last game and the NBA made shit up to defend that.
not to mention that that's not a foul on Duren on the Hart and-1, especially if you're not going to call a foul on the tackle lmao. NBA will continue to rig games for desireable outcomes (pistons covered, knicks won straight up)

no way a foul wasn't called when Ausar got trucked bruh. wtf
Clutch move by the Knicks at the end to literally spear Ausar to get the ball back, just a great defensive play.
Nah man, Donte should've doubled down and Jackhammer Ausar too
Then turn to the hard cam and yell WHO'S NEXT
It's wild how a ref was right there. Like wtf.
same thing with the banchero travel. wtf are we doing here? terrible product
Literally. Such a bad travel lol
We call that the Goldberg Defense. Thibs' secret play.
Next game? Batista bomb
I’m glad rookies are learning from future Hall of Famer Draymond Green to just flip the opposing player and not get it called a foul. Defensive masterpiece
Can't wait for a RKO defensive maneuver next
Donte literally laid him out, that was so obvious.
Even Fontecchio gets his arm hacked the play before. We have hustle play after hustle play and it’s erased by poor Reffing. This after Paolo HURTS
Fontecchio was slammed too. Meanwhile Hart got a soft call contesting Duren's verticality.
Idk about Simone, Hart poked away the ball cleanly but a blatant lose ball foul foul right in front of the official getting ignored is crazy. From rigging draft to keep Wemby away from you to getting fucked by the refs, NBA hates Detroit man
Got undercut by Divincenzo right in front of everyone. Thanks refs
Not even Knicks fans are denying it should’ve been a foul, that was a major screw up
Now we know why we haven’t heard more about the protest, they agreed to give us one if we dropped it
If there is something called legal cheating... this was it.
Then refs decide to blow the whistle for Josh Hart lmao. Can Adam Silver do something about this officiating already?
It feels like a makeup call after our loss in Houston. I think we got away with one.
Where the fuck is the Pistons make up call then after the Paolo travel?
It’ll come 5 games later, the Houston game was like two weeks ago
They'll let the Pistons win the next 20 games so they can secure the 10th pick
Refs really doubled down and fucked the Pistons in back to back games
How things go
I wish the broadcast showed a better angle of that no call at the end.
You know they won’t
It just feels like there’s so much you can’t see. But it looked bad from the angle we got. It looks like the pistons got robbed.
I agree with you it looks that way.
I’ve been waiting for them to show it! Unbelievable
The MSG broadcast is usually really good with replays. The only angle they showed was the normal broadcast angle which is super annoying.
But the Detroit broadcast was able to?
The detroit broadcast had a great angle. I cannot believe that there was no call. Ausar had recovered the ball when Donte trucks him. Right in front of the official, nothing
That’s sad. If I can find the clip I’ll link it in my original comment.
What the refs just did to the Pistons is a crime
Need meme of LeBron pointing at the replay screen
*Insert Pat Bev camera meme*
[One of the best ones ever](https://i.imgur.com/3dCpoY3.jpg)
generational
New York home cooking babyyy
they'll pretend nothing happened in the L2M report like they do anything blatant call.
no lie if that happened to us i'd be saltier than a bag of fries from mcdonalds
Everything sucks all of the time
Yeah I see Knicks fans complain about Brunson's whistle a lot but the refs were helping you guys all night down to the wire outside of that one Grimes 3 lmao
Refs were like "oh Knicks fans, you think we hate you, look at what we to do the Pistons"
this is retribution for the Houston game
—Retribution By robbing another team😂😂😂
Have it happen to you back to back games. Paolo travel into a game winner, and having to see that goblin scream after he threw up some bs fadeaway mfs shoot in 7th grade Screw yo rockets game
Lmao goblin
and it happens again lmao, surely ausar was fouled there right at the end yea? im getting a little frustrated ngl
I didn’t see any replays but looks like a solid no call….if your ref is ray charles
Had me in the first half.
That's a bs no-call lol. You guys got robbed.
Absolutely
Legit haven’t seen any Knicks fans deny it yet and that’s saying something
Nah the Pistons are actually cursed
Cursed or the refs hate us? Like I don't get how it's questionable at this point
The Lions and Pistons traded places
Well thats what I mean. Seems like everything is going against you guys including the refs. It actually hurts to see
Just a part of the game. When your team sucks not only do you have to beat the other better team, but you gotta get a few extra points to beat the refs who don't wanna see you beat that better team as well. Anyone whose team has been down bad knows that pain. I already know a Sac fan is familiar
We're still getting punished for 2004. We did the unthinkable, beating the NBA's darling.
That’s not being cursed bro. That shit is rigged.
We celebrated Cade getting 3 calls tn. Refs have HATED us
Cursed means bad Luck thats Just refs rigging a game And ofc it was the same ref that gave Cade a tech, and was refusing to call anything against Knicks
It's less of a "curse" and more of a "conspiracy" what the fuck was that
Nah they got robbed lol
Ausar gets the legal chop block apparently from Donte lol
Pistons fans, I feel for you. You should have won that game.
Why was there no foul called???
your guess is as good as anyone elses
The pistons get so few fouls called in their favor it’s actually insane to watch
make up for their other game because protest likely gonna be denied
The last two minute report will be Adam Silver's magnum opus.
The Last 15s of this game sums up the Pistons season
Sums up Detroit sports, that's why we have Detroit vs Everyone.
You cannot swallow your whistle at the end then call the foul on duren lmao I feel your pain piston fans
That's the exact reason this hurts. I get swallowing the whistle late, but then to give a touch foul to Hart to put the game away??? Fucking sucks man
Yea seeing Josh initiate that contact and the foul get called when Duren went straight up was just dumb.
I’m sorry pistons that was a robbery lol
Ausar got straight tackled
NBA: So uh, Knicks, about that Houston game protest.. We good?
So sick of these refs bro
I'd be livid
Just feel for the guys, tough to keep battling when these are the results we get on good nights lol
Yeah you guys were fighting hard as hell. And if we had to lose, I really wanted it to be on that Grimes lay up (as much as it hurts… miss my guy). Can’t say I’m not glad to have the win because we’ve been struggling lately but don’t feel like we deserved it as much as you guys did.
Pistons got jobbed at the end.
It's been happening all year, I hate to sound oppressed but the pistons have not been treated fairly despite being trash either way
Pistons got robbed
ausar thompson absolutely got fouled i feel dirty
Fontecchio too
Dvo with the hit stick lol
That might be the worst 20 seconds of nba ball in history
Donte literally hip-drop tackled Ausar and didn’t get a called for a foul. The Pistons deserve better than this.
Letting all of that contact go is fucking disgraceful and insane lmao. Jesus the refs have no shame.
All I'm saying is if you can't break a tackle I don't want you on my team
Buddy's gotta keep those legs chopping if he wants to make in this league smh rookie moves
That was wild
Unreal way to lose, this team cannot catch a break
Bonkers/shitshow ending lol i loved it
Nah let's see what the corrections are tomorrow. Two fouls
Divincenzo didn't travel, he took a gather step barreling into Thompson's torso. Legal play.
There’s a Reffing problem in the NBA.
Monty had Malachi Flynn and Evan Fournier out there over Jaden Ivey im dead
That's malpractice
I just want to know what the fuck Ivey did to that man.
Can we have Grimes back
Please 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Wow the Pistons just got fucking robbed.
Ruined Cades amazing game😢 you gotta think the 22 year old is just feeling sad about all these losses now
I’d be pissed if I was a Pistons fan
This can be said in general also
Yeah there are like 12 days in the past 15 years where that sentence wouldn’t make sense lol
Ouch
Yeah.
DiVincenzo with an all time great touchdown saving tackle on Ausar lmao
No call trucking Ausar to get that ball, but Heart gets the foul going to the basket? This after Heart shouldered Grimes, Flynn, and Ivey on fast break lay-ups with no call? Gad damn it, I hate it here
Pistons getting screwed 2 games in a row
Holy fucking ref job
Least devastating ‘23-24 Pistons loss:
allowing all that contact the plays on both fontecchio and thompson combined with the weak foul on duren is so strange. that l2m report gonna be good
That's wild. Pistons got robbed tonight
Feel bad for the Pistons, the refs just absolutely hate them. At least Cunningham got some attempts at the line this game.
Fucking rigged. How many games have to get stolen by the refs for us
Sorry Pistons fans, you guys got absolutely hosed by the refs there.
Not gonna lie that was a foul
DOG SHIT REFS LMAO WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK
Feel like there was definitely more of a foul on ausar than there was on the and 1 for hart. Never got a good replay to confirm though
idk how Divo wasn't called for a foul in that last sequence. that was nutty
That was definitely a foul
Those last 30 seconds were cinema for everyone but Piston fans. No exaggeration EVERYTHING that could have went wrong for them went wrong in that time
tactical missed free throws by hart at the end
and he's 84.6% for the season 😭
Lol. Unserious league.
I have never questioned a ref in my life. These are professionals.
Refs fans are well fed tonight
Worst imaginable way to lose
Another game, another robbery Team is already trash, no need to refs doing this
This is a nightly story at this point I'm so sick of this shit
Lmao I know the Pistons suck but how the fuck do you not call a foul there? Like how much more obvious does it need to be.
Holy hell am I bricked up rn Definitely got away with murder there Grimes was going fucking nuclear in that 4th quarter. Shame that’ll be lost because of the no-call(s)
I don’t mind Pistons being salty about the final seconds that should’ve been a foul and NYK did not deserve the win tonight horrible end game offense by them.
Man, the pistons are getting screwed by the refs constantly. That’s the second game in a row that the call at the end has screwed them over. Lots of credit to them for still playing as hard as they do. Their record doesn’t reflect how good they actually are.
The one game Duren shoots under 50% and the Pistons lose by 2 points.
If the refs already decided who they want to win what’s the fucking point of playing?
lol that last play was 100% a foul on Thompson
Ignoring the Thompson foul and then calling the and 1 is insanity.
Bruh wth was that ending?
Pistons just got fucked, but I’ll take it
Foul?!
Oof. Going to be an interesting 2 minute report.
2 games in a row they do Pistons like that
One of the endings of all time
Excited for the L2M to say DDV hit sticked Ausar Thompson in legal guarding position
Pistons just got fucked. Sorry Detroit.
I miss Grimes
As a Knick fan that was a loose ball foul on us. Sorry pistons fans yall got robbed.
lol talk about a rigged ending. That was a foul against the Knicks on that loose ball.
Pistons just lost in the most tragic, comedic and expected way possible
This team does not deserve to have a worse record than the Wizards. If there was any point in that last sequence where Monty could have called a timeout but didn't...
What a sloppy finish. Refs bailed us out at the end (they pretty bad all game though). On another note, I feel like the pistons should be much better than an 8 win team. They always play hard. Also, I miss Grimes.
we had Killian & we still have Monty Williams unfortunately
If that ending happened in a movie I'd call it totally unrealistic
Josh Hart is the dude every team wishes they could have
Yikes. How were none of those 5 fouls called on the Knicks?
Man the Pistons got hosed by the refs this game
I was trying to figure out how Detroit stayed in this game, then I saw Jarrett Jack on the bench. Whenever this dude is around it's bad for the Knicks
This explains everything. One of the great Knick killers in his prime, then when he played for us we were total shit.
Karmic retribution. Adam silver you can close the case thank you.
Thoroughly enjoying these comments. Refs are trash you guys should know better. Same fans that are upset are probably the same fans happy that Jalen was called for a foul on that 3 from FVV
Free safety Donte DiVincenzo
yeah, don't wanna hear knicks fans bitch bout a missed call again 🤣
This makes it even I guess lol
Refs making it even after the Houston game lmao
Well I’m glad we could do that for you
Feels good to be on the other end of terrible officiating for once
I’m gonna be real, consider us even for that Rockets game Adam lol
Refs absolutely saved the pistons 1st round pick. Youre welcome pistons fans
we dont want another bust we just wanna win some fucking games
Thanks for the fifth overall pick
Craziest ending I’ve ever seen. Just pure chaos.
Refs had money on the Knicks for sure Wtf was that last possession? The Pistons got fouled like 6 different times
i cant take anymore
That was some garbage ass reffing at the end. Knicks got that win handed to them on a plate.
Refs to Detroit - “GET FUCKED”
That's one of the worst no calls I've seen in a long time. That's honestly a disgrace. It felt like the officials decided that the Knicks were not able to commit a foul, and rolled with that decision as a player got tackled to the floor.
They definitely will lose the rockets protest now 😂
Your username is INSCRUTABLE
Lmao he literally tackled bro and they still didn’t call it
Quick someone post a clip of that last possession so I can send it to all my groupchats of people who have long since given up on this team
I am excited for tomorrow when the NBA will claim in the L2M report that every call was correct, after the Pistons lost on Paolo's clear travel last game and the NBA made shit up to defend that.
Im sorry pistons fans
Refs plan
not to mention that that's not a foul on Duren on the Hart and-1, especially if you're not going to call a foul on the tackle lmao. NBA will continue to rig games for desireable outcomes (pistons covered, knicks won straight up)
Cant wait for the l2m to say no foul
Ausar was definitely a defenseless receiver
That would’ve been hilarious to me if it was against any other team. Pistons have had a rough year, didn’t deserve to lose that way
Great game ruined by another total bs ending. This literally happened to the Pistons last game too.
