The Detroit Pistons have little conflict at hand figuring out the rotation for the 2019 NBA Playoffs with a confident hold on a spot in the postseason.

The Detroit Pistons are heading in a solid direction. The loss against the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday night was a missed opportunity, but the Pistons must move forward.

The playoff push has only started and Detroit hosts the Minnesota Timberwolves and Toronto Raptors over their next three games. With assumed relief against the Chicago Bulls, who serve as spoilers this deep into the season, the Detroit Pistons meet fellow eastern conference squads, the Brooklyn Nets and the Miami Heat – both equally as desperate as the Pistons for a late sprint.

If the Detroit Pistons make it out of the swarm alive, coach Dwane Casey will deliver some hard truths concerning the rotation going into the 2019 NBA Playoffs.

The lineup has to feature Detroit’s stronger shooters, most aware defenders and a couple of cohesive spark plugs that can set the court ablaze if need be. Here’s a prediction of where the rotation will land, their time on the floor per game thus far and which man-up will see his minutes die down.
