In my Eastern Conference Playoff predictions before the season started, I said that “The Detroit Pistons have the most wiggle room, up or down. A lot could go right, or a lot could go wrong.”
We can all go back and take a look and laugh at my reasonably tempered 6th seed prediction as seemingly everything has gone wrong for the Pistons this season.
Injuries to every single one of the Pistons top 5 players (Blake Griffin, Luke Kennard, Derrick Rose, Andre Drummond, Reggie Jackson) have kept them from doing anything but fighting for the 8th seed, again.
