This season and last season, the Detroit Pistons lost their edge in the NBA. During this decade (2000-2009), the Pistons won the Central Division in 2002, 2003, 2005-2008, and the Pistons won the NBA Title in 2004 and played in the 2005 NBA title and lost to the San Antonio Spurs. The 2008 season, the Pistons were in transition and although they made the eight spot of the playoffs, they lost in the first round of the playoffs in 2009 and the Pistons are not favored to make a playoff spot in 2010.For the 2009-2010 NBA season, I do see the Pistons making a lower seed playoff spot (5-8) but I do not see them getting to the NBA Eastern Conference game for a very long time. The Pistons basketball organization declined after they fired Flip Saunders as their coach and as a result, the team declined since their coach Michael Curry did not have any leadership in coaching an NBA team. Although Piston coach John Kuester will do his best to help the Pistons improve, it will be a while until the Pistons are a playoff contender in the NBA Central Division.
