The Pistons' rank in the media's Power Rankings continues to ebb and flow.

First off, my apologies for skipping a few weeks on this. Holidays and all. Now let's look at how the Pistons have held up since Week 3, our last incarnation of the Power Rankings Roundup.

Week 4

The Pistons got a nice win against the Cavs on Tuesday and their defense has kept them above .500. But their bench continues to be a big problem. In their three games last week, their five starters all had a plus-minus of plus-30 or better, while their five subs were all minus-21 or worse.
