This is as an offensive team as any in the East, unlike previous seasons, the Pistons relying on their offence to win games. This should be a good regular season team but how will they able to handle the wind and grind of the playoffs? Regardless, the Pistons will be fun to watch this season, something you couldn't say about them for the past few years.

It will be hard to not keep an eye on the Pistons

LeBron doesn't have enough help? Not anymore, the solid cast provides more than enough help for LeBron. How will BG and RJ adjust to not having the touches they used to have? If LBJ can build off his monster year, this team will be giving defenses nightmares.

All kinds of talent ready for big things.

Breaking up the KG - CP3 tandem will hurt the team this season, however they still have some pieces that can help them push for the playoffs. CP3 needs another star though, Iggy isn't going to get it done in my opinion.

This one could go either way

They have some nice young pieces in the frontcourt that are capable of helping the team win this season, however the backcourt is nothing to brag about. Bayless is still raw and needs a few seasons to develop. Who knows though, this team could surprise people with their strong frontcourt and bench.

Under all the ugly there is a good team there we think.

On paper, this team should easily make the playoffs in the weak Eastern Conference. That's why games aren't played on paper. This team isn't put together very well, too much players who need the ball in their hands and not enough touches to go around. The bench is very thin and they still lack outside shooting, you'd think the GM would fill these holes after witnessing what happened last season.
Always good for a joke
