Playoffs are probably a lost hope for the Detroit Pistons at this point in the season. At 19-33 they've improved as the season has gone along but there's still plenty of work to do before the Pistons will be back to their glory days. With April starting, the Pistons have 14 games remaining on their schedule in the abbreviated

Tuesday brings the Orlando Magic to the Palace. The Magic missed Dwight Howard for only the sixth time in his career in their last game against the Denver Nuggets. The Nuggets won that game as the Magic clearly missed Howard's quality, and they have Ryan Anderson out with injury as well after that game.

Thursday's game should be a bit easier as the Washington Wizards head to Detroit. The 12-40 Wizards have been so bad this season that it's actually shocking when they don't blow a big lead it's surprising to the fans.

The weekend has the Pistons on the road as they face the Atlanta Hawks on Friday and the Miami Heat on Sunday, those two games being the start of a four game road trip.
