Fresh Accusations Drop on TNT Broadcast as Isaiah Stewart Misses Out Intense Brawl in Piston vs Knicks Game 3

The playoffs bring out the heat, and for the Detroit Pistons, the fire’s been burning even before Game 3 tipped off. Already down a key starter in Isaiah Stewart, Detroit walked into their first home playoff game since 2019 with a chip on their shoulder and a roster still figuring things out. The stakes? Massive. The energy? Unmatched. And in true postseason fashion, it didn’t take long for things to boil over.

Isaiah Stewart—out again due to knee inflammation—wasn’t even in uniform. Yet somehow, he became the face of a fight in which he didn’t throw a punch. Early in the first quarter, the game turned scrappy. Jalen Brunson was hit with a flagrant foul after catching Tim Hardaway Jr. on a closeout. Minutes later, Paul Reed and Knicks bigs Karl-Anthony Towns and Mitchell Robinson exchanged shoves. Techs were handed out like playoff towels.

But here’s where it got weird. TNT’s cameras? They couldn’t stop cutting to Stewart. Sitting in street clothes. Just watching. The moment the scuffle started, the broadcast panned to him—and then again—and again. Almost like they were expecting him to teleport onto the floor and square up.

Fans found it hilarious… and kind of unfair.
