Pistons restricting ticket sales to limit Knicks fans
Briefly

In response to past experiences where Knicks fans dominated attendance, the Detroit Pistons are limiting playoff ticket sales to residents of Michigan and selected areas in nearby states and Canada. This move is to ensure that local fans have the opportunity to support the team during the playoffs and avoid an atmosphere similar to last season's Philadelphia series. While online purchases will be restricted, secondary market sales will remain open, allowing Knicks fans nearby to potentially attend the games.
"To better serve local fans looking to attend the playoff games at Little Caesars Arena, the Detroit Pistons are restricting tickets sales to customers located in Michigan and in certain parts of Ohio, Indiana, and Ontario, Canada, as determined by the Pistons and subject to change."
"The Pistons are intent on not allowing the Knicks fans to take over when they meet in Game 3 and 4 in the opening round of the postseason."
