Kirby Lee-Imagn Images Stephen A. Smith has been loud and clear that he thinks the New York Knicks are one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference this season. But, even with his high regard for the Knicks, Smith admitted there is one team that really gets him scared for the playoffs.
And they aren’t the Boston Celtics or the Cleveland Cavaliers . It is the Detroit Pistons . Smith broke down exactly why Detroit gives him pause, and his reasoning is hard to argue with.
Stephen A fears the Detroit Pistons’ physicality Vincent Carchietta-Imagn Images “I’m telling you, with the New York Knicks, the issue for me that I have with them, you can’t look at Detroit and say, oh, about the playoff victories they haven’t had,” he began by saying. “With Isaiah Stewart, with Jalen Duren, and that front line, Karl-Anthony Towns is going to have to up his game. “Mitchell Robinson is going to have to be a presence.
The OG and the Nobys of the world are going to have to show up. They’re bigger, they’re physical, they don’t mind getting up in you… It’s the Detroit Pistons that have given me cause to pause and to be concerned. And I think those concerns are very legitimate.
