Both teams fared well in the first game minus their traded center pieces -- the Knicks tied their season high with their third straight win in getting by the Magic, while the Pistons competed well against the Thunder. Thon Maker and Christian Wood both stepped up in place of the departed Andre Drummond. New York held up in its first game minus Marcus Morris, but it's difficult to envision the short-handed club making it four in a row Saturday night.
