Detroit — Things are really starting to get interesting now for the Pistons in their playoff chase. They’re not just pursuing others; they’re being chased themselves.
The Pistons planted themselves in the seventh spot; now, they’re trying to overtake the Nets for sixth place by playing some of their best basketball of the season.
After feasting on sub-.500 teams to get back in contention, the Pistons now are elevating their game, taking out the Indiana Pacers, 113-109, on Monday night at Little Caesars Arena. It’s the Pistons’ third straight victory and seventh in their last eight games.
