The Detroit Pistons brought in reigning coach of the year Dwane Casey to bring the winning mentality to Detroit. After 2 years in a row of not making the playoffs; Pistons owner Tom Gores wanted change. He fired Stan Van Gundy in hopes the Pistons could make a run for the playoffs this season. That hasn’t been the case so far this season.
The Pistons have had a tough 2 month stretch this season. With injuries, a tough schedule, and players not performing to the level they can; the team has suffered from devastating losses.
After starting the season with a loud 13 wins to 7 losses record, they muffled down to a disappointing 8 wins to 21 losses record since.
