Editor's note: This column originally ran in the Detroit Free Press on April 11, 1986. Chet Lemon died on May 8, 2025. A note from Mitch: I was deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Chet Lemon. He was a joy to cover with the Tigers in the 80’s, always upbeat, always positive. He also had a unique relationship with his ratty old glove, which had been through the wars with him for many years.

While the Pistons showed growth and promise, key missed opportunities and late-game struggles ultimately led to their elimination. Jalen Brunson, the thumping aorta of the New York Knicks, took the ball and went to work on Ausar Thompson. The score was tied. The clock was dying.

Here’s the crazy thing about NBA basketball: for all that comes before the final seconds of a tight playoff game, all the hacking, clawing, headbutting, arms flailing, wild shots, incredible putbacks, eye-blinking drives and fallaway jumpers, all anyone remembers is who made the last shot. Or who missed. Cade Cunningham got the final shot he wanted – “A shot I love,” he would say – middle of the floor, 14 feet out.
