You have to believe in the Pistons. Not because you're a homer or because you're living in some fantasy world, but because the Pistons are worth believing in.
Time after time, this team has been doubted. And time after time, it has responded. From the day this collection of misfits and castoffs was put together by team president Joe Dumars, people have had doubts.
Some even among us, but mostly from NBA America.

Tracy McGrady has become a rover, and the Pistons have to make him pay.
On defense, McGrady often has left his man, usually Michael Curry, and helped on double-teams, hounding the Pistons' guards as they brought the ball upcourt.
That has forced the Pistons to get into their half-court offense later, at times leaving precious few seconds to run a play.
