For the first time since 2016, the Pistons are back in the NBA playoffs. Now, they'll try to win a playoff game for the first time since 2008.
That won't be easy. The Pistons open their Eastern Conference playoff series on Sunday night against the top-seeded Bucks at Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee. Tip-off is at 7 p.m.
The Bucks not only own the NBA's best regular-season record at 60-22, they boast an MVP candidate in Giannis Antetokounmpo, while the status of the Pistons' MVP, Blake Griffin, remains uncertain because of a knee injury.
