Pistons vs Magic prediction

Orlando didn't just lose Game 6 — they were psychologically destroyed. Blowing a 24-point lead by scoring 8 points in the fourth quarter, missing 23 consecutive shots, and shooting 11% in the second half isn't bad luck. That's a team that broke, and broken teams don't reassemble overnight for a road Game 7. The Magic are also walking into Little Caesars Arena shorthanded. Franz Wagner misses his third straight game with a calf strain, Jonathan Isaac remains doubtful, and their offensive engine has no reliable co-pilot alongside Banchero. Speaking of Banchero — Detroit has already figured him out, denying paint access and doubling hard on his drives. He was neutralized when it mattered most. Meanwhile, the Pistons have everything pointing the right direction. Cade Cunningham was magnificent with 32 points and 10 rebounds, Tobias Harris is back healthy, and the crowd at home will be electric after that comeback. Detroit's 60-22 regular season record wasn't a fluke — this is the deeper, more complete team. Momentum in playoff basketball is real, and the Pistons have it all. Back Detroit to close this series out — Orlando's confidence is shattered and they don't have the weapons to rebuild it on the road.
