Pistons upcoming schedule offers plenty of reasons to be thankful

After enduring the NBA's sixth-toughest schedule through their first 16 games, the Detroit Pistons now enter a more favorable stretch that may help them rise in the standings.

Whew! The Detroit Pistons have just finished a brutal stretch of their season and have emerged 8-8.

Sounds like a perfect time to serve up a Thanksgiving-sized helping of statistical analysis Kool-Aid for loyal fans who've enjoyed the highs and endured the lows of this young season.

Having watched almost every single minute thus far, I can share Pistons fans' frustrations with inconsistent play, inconsistent effort, too many turnovers, a league-worst bench and horrible long-range shooting.
