Piston’s manager Monty Williams finally smiles after beating…….

After more than two months, the Detroit Pistons triumphed against the Toronto Raptors 129-127 on Saturday night. The team’s record-tying 28-game losing skid has ended, and head coach Monty Williams gave an account of what happened in the locker room following the victory.

“I’ve been in a ton of locker rooms my whole life and that’s a first for me, to have that kind of, it wasn’t relief, it was like, ‘Thank god, finally,'” Williams stated. “Guys were yelling, and I was on the verge of tears. I’m just happy for our guys and for everyone else in the locker room.” Such a victory is sometimes all that is needed to get things going.”

I really hope that this victory does spark the Pistons and their supporters. It is understandable that Williams would have become quite emotional after witnessing their celebrations, since this young squad would have valued their victory greatly.

It is reasonable to assume that this bunch of players is still giving it their all for Williams, despite the fact that he has faced criticism quite a bit this season. Taking into account the outcomes of the previous two games, you may have predicted this victory in certain ways. The Pistons were up 21 points against the Boston Celtics and had led by 14 points at one point against the Brooklyn Nets.

It was just a question of time until they put it all together, and that was against the Raptors. For the Pistons, the task at hand is to build on their victory and make sure they finish the season with a decent record.

Cade Cunningham’s Response Following Victory
Cade Cunningham was one individual who, understandably enough, avoided criticism during this losing run. Cunningham has been playing really well lately. Against the Raptors, he finished with 30 points, 3 rebounds, 12 assists, and 1 steal. He was having trouble not cheesing after the game.

“I feel incredible,” Cunningham declared. “I’m trying for the first time not to act cheesy throughout the interview. I’m feeling well. Don’t want to go back to where we were; it’s been a long time coming.”

Nobody would like to return to the Pistons’ original location. Cunningham should be commended for his performance at this trying time. Although the squad had several players rise up to help them win, he was the main reason they prevailed.

The 22-year-old helped the Pistons stave off the Raptors by scoring 14 points in only the fourth quarter. Toronto attempted a late comeback, but by then it was a bit too late.
