Predicting the Detroit Pistons regular season record month-by-month
Detroit Pistons regular season schedule predictions
February: 6 wins, 5 losses
A winning month! February lightens up a bit and is the easiest month for the Detroit Pistons, as they have plenty of games against teams that are not expected to be good.
I have them winning games against the Wizards, Hornets (x2), Spurs, Magic and Raptors in February, which will probably drive the tank community nuts if the Pistons are again near the bottom of the East and battling for top position in the lottery.
March: 6 wins, 8 losses
This could be another decent month for the Pistons, as they once again face some teams that they should be able to beat and who could be tanking by that point.
I have them winning games against the Trail Blazers, Hornets (I think they could be horrible next season after their atrocious offseason), Pacers (x2), Thunder and Rockets in March.
February and March should give the Pistons a chance at a strong finish, just as they had last season, but likely won’t be enough to get them into the play-in conversation.
