"Every time we came out of the huddle, and at half time, everyone was telling me to keep shooting and not get down," Caldwell-Pope told reporters after the game. "I just kept shooting and it had to be the game-winning three."
Also contributing were two of Detroit's second unit players. Guard Ish Smith and forward Tobias Harris entered the game with seven minutes left in the third quarter and played the remainder of the game. The duo combined to score 23 points in the second half and finished with a game-high plus/minus rating of plus-26 each.
"Tobias and Ish were playing really, really well," said Van Gundy. "Those two guys were really kind of fuelling us, especially on the offensive end. So we just stuck with them," he added.
With the win, Detroit improves to 26-29 on the season and have won five of their seven games. The team is currently tied with Chicago Bulls for seventh place in the Eastern Conference.
In his third season with the team, Van Gundy is on track to take Pistons to the playoffs for the second straight season.
