The Detroit Pistons once again turned in a lackluster performance, and now their season is one loss away from ending early.
The 1-seed Pistons fell to the 8-seed Orlando Magic 94-88 in Game 4 of their first-round series in the NBA playoffs on Monday, April 27, at Kia Center in Orlando. Cade Cunningham once again led all scorers with 25 points, but the Pistons also recorded 20 turnovers, and blew an opportunity to steal Game 4 on the road.
The Magic now have a 3-1 series lead with Game 5 on Wednesday night in Detroit, when the Pistons will try to avoid becoming just the seventh 1-seed in NBA history to lose a first-round matchup against an 8-seed.
Here were the emotional reactions from fans and NBA media to Game 4 of Pistons-Magic:
