14. Detroit Pistons (37-36)
The Detroit Pistons are on track to make the playoffs in the Eastern Conference, but their last nine games are anything but simple. In fact, their next seven games are all against hopeful playoff teams that are still fighting for seeding.
However, this is almost perfect. In the NBA, you have to earn your way into the playoffs and that is exactly what the Pistons will have to do over the next couple of weeks. I suppose the big question is where would Detroit want to be seeded?
Who would they want to play of the top 3 seeds? The Bucks, Raptors or 76ers? Tough to come to one pick, but you’d have to think that you want to feed on the injured Bucks, from the three. Who could’ve predicted that a couple weeks ago?
