EDIT: fixed title

Their last home playoff win was on May 26, 2008 in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

Since then, their drought:

- 2008 ECF: lost the last two games

- 2009 playoffs: Swept 0-4 by the Cavs

- 2016 playoffs: Swept 0-4 by the Cavs

- 2019 playoffs: Swept 0-4 by the Bucks

- 2025 playoffs: Did not win a home game

Over 6500 days since then. 17 years and nearly 11 months. What a road it’s been for Detroit

Some of the most hype moments of the playoffs are when a home team is just absolutely torching another squad and the crowd is going nuts. Detroit fried their face off in the second half

Just an absolute tidal wave. That sequence with the Sheen 3 and then Ausar steal/slam was so hype

I unfortunately missed the game but I knew Detroit must’ve won because one of my friends just texted me in all caps:

“DEEEEEEEETROIT! BASKETBALL”

All this to not have home advantage vs the Magic, and competing for a chance to be swept by the Cavs (again)

How can we both lose next round? Only one team can move on.

But the Cavs are a very good team since the Harden trade, wouldn’t be that bad if the Pistons (assuming they beat the Magic) weren’t able to get a dub that series.

I think you are right, I looked up the roster and I saw iverson too, I guess that’s the season when billups when to Denver.

The Iverson trade happened two games into the 2008-2009 season. Singlehandedly set the franchise back twenty years.
