Pistons vs. Thunder: It won’t be easy to ... lose this one

The schedule doesn’t spoil us. The Detroit Pistons host tonight Oklahoma City Thunder, visit Washington Wizards tomorrow and host Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday. These teams have a combined winning percentage of 37.2%. It’s the type of schedule you want when fighting for a favorable playoffs seed, but not one you want when you … are developing young players. The Pistons’ youngsters have already proven they are up to face challenging opponents so there is no huge advantage to facing similarly bad opponents. The Pistons, however, need to feed as many minutes to the young players as possible as the season winds down.
