5 reasons to believe in the Detroit Pistons in 2019-20 season
As the 2019-20 season approaches, what are some reasons to be optimistic about the Detroit Pistons upcoming season? Here are five reasons to be optimistic.
The Pistons 2018-19 season ended on a sour note due to a four-game sweep at the hands of the Milwaukee Bucks in a playoff series where the Pistons seemed vastly outmatched. Despite the brutal ending, it was a rather successful season for the team.
The team proved that Andre Drummond and Blake Griffin can coexist to form a dangerous frontcourt duo, as well as accomplishing their initial preseason goal of returning to the playoffs. Neither the players nor the front office are content with the improvements of last season.
With minimal money to spend, Ed Stefanski and the front office were able to improve the Pistons in multiple facets, most notably at the point guard and wing spot. With the 2019-20 season a little over a month away, the Pistons are doing everything they can to not only match but exceed their accomplishments from the previous season.
While this is not a team that fans can anticipate competing for an NBA championship quite yet, there is reason for optimism that this team will be able to not only make it to the playoffs, but also make some noise upon arrival.
