Dwane Casey recently said that his goal for next season was for the Pistons to have a top-ten defense.
Considering the Pistons are 17th in defense this season, it seems like a lofty goal, but if you take a closer look at the numbers, the Pistons are well on their way there.
They have been much better since jettisoning Blake Griffin, climbing five spots in that time and have tightened things up even more over the last ten, allowing just 108 points per game, which would put them in the top-6 if carried over a whole season.
