Behind a paywall - insider.
Projected 2016-17 records and standings for every NBA team

4. Detroit Pistons
Projected wins: 47.5 (Summer Forecast: 45-37)

While most of the East's middle class took a step backward this offseason, the Pistons should improve by virtue of upgrading at backup point guard and center, and RPM sees them as the third team in a tier with Boston and Toronto.

Who is back up center? Did they not resign the lumberjack? Biggest question: Drummond's free throws.

They signed what's his name from San Antonio.... Ridiculously large center... European... Bodan is perhaps his first name? I can't remember but I do remember that spurs fans loved him.

Boban... Even his face looks like a giant

The NBA’s New Lineups of Death

Detroit Pistons — Reggie Jackson, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Stanley Johnson, Tobias Harris, and Marcus Morris
Necessity is the mother of invention. The Pistons went to this lineup in the final six minutes of Game 4 of their first-round series against the Cavs, after playing these players together for less than a minute in the regular season. It was pure five-out basketball, with five players on the 3-point line, all of whom had range out to the arc and could score off the dribble. The Cavs were scrambling and out of sorts on defense, needing shot-making heroics from LeBron and Kyrie Irving, as well as a miss at the buzzer from Jackson, to escape with a 100–98 win.

At least on paper. I'm hoping McCallum sticks, I've always rooted for him.

I don't really get jazzed up about this team. Don't find them all that endearing. But fwiw, Vegas has them at 46.5 wins. That's kind of a lot. Most years 50 wins is gonna get you a 2 seed.

What's the deal wbh? They are really fun. Super athletic across the board, very young, could use some more shooters but they have improved in that area. Going to be able to run the break with the best of them.

Yikes, not having a pg and the season is near.

Pistons wouldnt be looking if Reggie was going to only be out a few weeks. Seems like he'll miss significant time.
