DIFFERENT: Detroit Pistons Have Not Looked Like The SAME TEAM Last Six Games | Should There Be Concern?

Detroit Pistons rock the NBA with a 13-game win streak, rising to 17-5—but are cracks starting to show? Can Jaden Ivey’s off-ball scoring and athleticism spark the offense, or will turnovers and rotation issues derail their Eastern Conference ambitions? Ku Khahil breaks down the Pistons’ defensive identity, their recent offensive struggles, and how injuries to Duncan Robinson and growing pains in the rotation are impacting the team. Key topics include Cade Cunningham’s turnover spike, Jalen Duren’s adjustment to defenses, and Ivey’s evolving role alongside core players. The debate heats up as Ku calls for a trade to land a high-volume, stretch four—citing names like Michael Porter Jr. and Lauri Markkanen to boost spacing. With playoff dreams on the line, can J.B. Bickerstaff make the tough lineup decisions to restore the Pistons’ early-season dominance? SUBSTACK: kukhahil.substack.com PLAYBACK: playback.tv/watchpistons Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
