Granted, that means they are just 1-4 and that lone win came via playing the anemic offense of the Philadelphia 76ers, but I digress. Cade Cunningham has a turnover problem, and a lack-of-three-throw problem, but otherwise has excelled. Jaden Ivey has a not-a-point-guard problem, but he’s looked great as a complementary off-guard with big improvements in both his perimeter shooting and his ability to effectively attack the basket. Tonight, the Pistons face a tough test in the New York Knicks. New York plays at a deceptively slow pace that is masking the fact that they have the third-best offense in the NBA. Of course, they also have the 27th-ranked defense. I’d say Karl-Anthony Towns is a big factor in both those rankings, but the Knicks big man is questionable tonight with a wrist injury. If he misses, the Knicks will either go small with OG Anunoby at center or turn to a combination of Jericho Sims and Ariel Kukporti.
