12. Detroit Pistons (9-7)
Last week: 13
The Detroit Pistons had a solid week, coming off a big victory over the Rockets just few nights ago. Houston has been playing much better as of late, so it was impressive to see an up-and-coming team like the Pistons come away with the victory.
Still, I don’t know whether the Pistons can continue to play and win at this pace. They have played like a team that will likely finish in the top 6 of the conference, but at the same time wouldn’t be surprised if they fell off a bit over the next few weeks.
I want to believe in the Pistons, but there’s just something about this team that keeps me off the bandwagon for now.
