Pacers finished last season with a 21-10 record against the west and took OKC to game 7 in the finals. Pistons are 11-5 while half way through the season do some research no trades we’re fine!
You make great points ☝️ the west is offense. The east is defense. I watched OKC lose without Wallace. Spoke volumes if you can get stops . Can the Pistons get stops ? Yes. Can they get another proven shooter to prevent scoring lulls they must address ? Waiting……. Don't need to be smart 😂 the answer is up to management.
If you think they can win the east they are title contenders…. tier lists thinking has turned peoples Brian's into mush
The Pistons can win a series against any team in the West. It beomes valuable to win WITHOUT 3 point shooting in the playoffs which the Pistons have proven they can do. As of today, the OKC Thunder are shooting 35.9% from the 3 and the Pistons are shooting 35.3% from the 3. I don't think that 0.6% makes that much difference.
They have the defense and hustle to win it all, but they can look lost and disorganized on offense.
I still think the Cavs or Celtics (even without Tatum) could trip them up.
Y’all nitpicking. If you can beat your conference then you’re a contender. Theirs only 1 team from the west the Pistons really need to worry about and only the future will hold that answer.
We don’t really need to worry about this until what June? Let’s get through the east then worry about the west.
The Detroit Pistons have the best record amongst Eastern Conference teams against Western Conference teams with an 11-5 record .a .690 winning percentage. They also have the best record against teams that are above .500 with a 16-6 record, a .727 winning percentage. Relax Piston Community. The sky is not falling
The focus should be the East. We have to beat the East to get to the finals. I say we are doing very well against our conference. Let the West beat up on each other so by the time they get to the Finals they are spent and won't have enough to beat us. I think we should go ALL in to get to the finals this year! Opportunities aren't guaranteed just because we're YOUNG!! Strike while it's hot!
