Cade Cunningham adds to MVP 'case' with 42-point game vs. Knicks
""It comes from doing the things I said, what I needed to do to be in that conversation," Cunningham told ESPN Thursday night. "Now that we're getting closer, there's more (talk), like 'what is your case? You should speak on it'. I don't really care to speak on it. I want the people that vote on it to be smart enough to look at the game for themselves.""
""He's no longer running from the possibility. "I think I am (MVP)," Cunningham told ESPN. "And if you don't agree with me, that's your opinion." Thursday night's game was as big of a statement he could make, given the circumstances. The Pistons were without their two best big men, Jalen Duren and Isaiah Stewart, due to suspension from their altercation in Charlotte before the All-Star break.""
Cade Cunningham scored 42 points, added 13 assists and grabbed eight rebounds to propel the Detroit Pistons to a 126-111 victory over the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden. The win completed a season sweep of the Knicks for the Pistons. Detroit played without Jalen Duren and Isaiah Stewart, both suspended after an altercation in Charlotte before the All-Star break. The Pistons limited the Knicks to 8-of-35 three-point shooting, including a stretch of 15 consecutive misses in the first half. Cunningham declared he believes he is the NBA Most Valuable Player and urged voters to evaluate the games themselves.
