After one of the best seasons in recent team history, the Detroit Pistons are riding high into the offseason. Literally one season later, the Pistons finished the 2024-25 season with a 44-38 record, taking the sixth seed in the Eastern Conference and facing the New York Knicks in round one of the playoffs. This is a Detroit Pistons team that now plays with strength, confidence, and pride, qualities the franchise hasn't had in years.
