Despite some early lopsided matchups, the first round of the NBA playoffs is rolling -- upsets! comebacks! whatever it is the Lakers are doing! -- and there are some crucial Game 6s over the next two days.
The New York Knicks and Detroit Pistons have played arguably the most competitive and chaotic first-round series so far, and on Thursday night, upstart Detroit has a chance to even the series at three games apiece in front of its home crowd.
It's been a high-strung matchup from the opening tip, and the competition has grown only more intense as the series has played on.
