While the NBA Finals are still a long way off, it’s almost impossible not to be impressed with the Pistons, especially since they’re just two seasons removed from losing a league-record 28 games.
They sit comfortably atop the Eastern Conference at 15-2, including 7-1 on the road.
Cunningham and Duren are playing at an All-Star level, while LeVert, Tobias Harris, Aussar Thompson, Duncan Robinson and Isaiah Stewart have been perfect complementary pieces. Even Daniss Jenkins and Ron Holland II had their moments.
The return of Jaden Ivey from a leg injury should also bode well for the Pistons. He scored 12 points in 12 minutes off the bench against the Pacers, his second game back.
As corny as it sounds, the Pistons play like a well-oiled machine, with every player playing their role to the hilt on both ends. Their disaster campaigns, which Cunningham enduredit only made the team more determined. Now they are reaping the fruits of their labor.
Detroit will try to set a new team record on Wednesday against the Boston Celtics in the NBA Cup.
