6 consecutive wins to reach second place in the league! The No. 1 pick was known as a data brush two years ago, but now he is competing for MVP.

On November 10th, the NBA regular season continued. Today, the Eastern Conference ushered in a focus game. The 76ers faced the challenge of the Pistons at home. The two sides fought to the last minute. In the last 5 minutes of regular time, Maxi hit a three-pointer to help the 76ers lead by 1 point. Amen , Holland and Duren responded with 6 points together, Edgecombe hit a three-pointer, Cunningham responded with a 2+1, Maxey scored 4 more points to help the team catch up to only 1 point, with 30 seconds left in the game, Cunningham hit a jumper, Maxey missed, and the 76ers lost to the Pistons 108-111.

In this campaign, Maxi made 10 of 26, 4 of 12 three-pointers, and scored 33 points, 4 rebounds, 7 assists, and 2 steals. Maxi tried his best, but the absence of Embiid and George made it difficult for him to stand alone. Recently, Edgecomb has lost his previous magic. In this campaign, he scored 11 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists on 3-of-9 shooting. Drummond scored 17 points, 12 rebounds and 2 assists. He has practiced three-pointers this season. Grimes came off the bench and scored 13 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists.

The Pistons' dual-core team still performed very well. Cunningham did not perform well in the first half, scoring 1 of 9 in total, but made good adjustments in the second half and led the team to complete the reversal. In this campaign, Cunningham made 9 of 20 from the safety field and scored 26 points, 4 rebounds, 11 assists and 1 steal. Duren scored 21 points, 16 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 blocks. As long as Cunningham can perform as he should, Duren can break out. Duren relied on Cunningham's feeding to achieve an excellent performance.

After winning, the Pistons won 6 consecutive games. Their record reached 8 wins and 2 losses. Looking at the entire league, except for the Thunder, no team has a better record than them. The Pistons team can reach its current heights, which is probably something many fans did not expect. Although they reached the top six in the Eastern Conference last season, there are still the Knicks, Cavaliers, and Bucks with letters in the Eastern Conference. As a result, the Pistons reached the first place in the Eastern Conference. Their core is still very young. Cunningham is the key to the team being able to achieve today's record.

During the 6-game winning streak, Cunningham averaged 29.2 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 11.2 assists per game, with a true shooting percentage of 60.9%. This makes him the league's top ball-handling core. Cunningham and Maxey had a conversation before this game. Although Maxey scored more points, Cunningham had more assists. Cunningham drove the team better, and his performance at critical moments was not inferior to Maxey's.

Now Cunningham has fulfilled the talent of his model Doncic. The 21st No. 1 pick was questioned a lot back then. During the draft, he was considered to have a future ceiling that would not be higher than the second overall pick Jaylen Green. After all, Green's model is Jordan and Kobe. And Cunningham didn't get enough respect in the early stages of his career. Even though he averaged 22.7 points, 4.3 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game in the third year of his career, he was considered a data brush because this season the Pistons had the worst record in the league and they also suffered an embarrassing 28-game losing streak.

Looking at the history of the NBA, not all players can be like Duncan and lead the team to success when they first entered the league. Moreover, the Spurs were not weaklings at that time. James and Jordan both experienced the experience of being unable to lead the team to success when they were young, and Cunningham He started to learn to win last season. He used his stable output and better passing ability to lead the Pistons into the playoffs. This was questioned as the number one pick, but he broke out in the playoffs, averaging 25+8+8 per game. He proved that he can fight tough battles.

Now the team's main cores Duren is 21 years old, Orsa Thompson is 22 years old, and Holland is 20 years old. They are the future of this team. They are also very young and inexperienced, but under the leadership of Cunningham, they have performed very well in their respective duties. Duren is now called a little monster, averaging 19.4 points, 11.8 rebounds, 1.3 blocks and 1 steal per game. Orsa averaged 14 points, 6.6 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.8 steals per game. He is as talented as Amen. Holland averaged 9.7 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2 assists and 1.6 steals per game, and has become a top substitute firepower.

Many fans call the current Pistons the Eastern Thunder, and Cunningham is their Alexander. Cunningham has received enough recognition for his outstanding performance this season. If the Pistons can maintain their current ranking, he has a chance to hit the regular season MVP. Although his popularity is not very high, as long as he performs well enough and leads the team with a good enough record, he will definitely get more recognition.

The Pistons will have a back-to-back tomorrow. They will face the Wizards. If they continue to play like this, the Pistons will have a 7-game winning streak. In fact, Cunningham has not yet entered his true peak period. He is only 24 years old and there is still a lot of room for improvement in the future. This season, his control ability and mid-range are more stable. In the future, if he can develop his three-pointers to the top level of the league, he will be even better.
