Trends the last time the Detroit Pistons won a playoff game - ESPN

The Detroit Pistons' turnaround has reached another milestone — they've won a playoff game.

Detroit defeated the New York Knicks 97-94 in Game 2 on Monday, securing its first playoff victory since the 2008 Eastern Conference finals.

The Pistons held a 12-point lead in the middle of the fourth quarter, but the Knicks crawled back to tie the game with 1:15 left. Detroit guard Dennis Schroder then connected on a 3-pointer to give the Pistons the lead for good. Cade Cunningham led Detroit with 33 points and 12 rebounds, while Schroder had 20 points.

Heading into Monday, the Pistons had lost the 15 straight playoff games, the longest streak in NBA history, according to ESPN Research. Their last victory came in Game 4 of the East finals against the Boston Celtics.

Here's what the world looked like the last time the Pistons had won a playoff game: May 26, 2008.

While the Pistons and Boston Celtics battled in the East, the Los Angeles Lakers and San Antonio Spurs matched up in the West.

The Spurs got in the win column the day before as the Lakers held a 2-1 lead. Tim Duncan led San Antonio with 22 points, 21 rebounds and five assists, while Kobe Bryant led Los Angeles with 30 points.

That marked the lone win of the series for the Spurs, as the Lakers closed it out in five games.

Lil Wayne was in the midst of his most dominant run the week of the Pistons' victory. His single, «Lollipop» featuring Static Major, returned to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, four weeks after initially topping the charts. It spent five weeks at No. 1 and 28 total on the Billboard Hot 100.

The track won Best Rap Song at the 51st Grammy Awards, marking his first of four wins that night.

Other songs on the Billboard Hot 100 that week include Rihanna's
