A tough opening slate that featured 11 of their first 17 games on the road now features more home contests for a 10-9 Detroit squad that currently ranks tenth in the Eastern Conference.
Winners of their last two games at The Palace, the Pistons get to enjoy home cooking for two more nights before they resume traveling. And they will also enjoy an additional three-game home stand over the next two weeks. With a 6-2 record playing before the Motown maniacs, the friendlier schedule may allow Detroit to rise in this year’s surprisingly stiff standings in the NBA East.
