Detroit Pistons: An Illustrious History

One of the oldest franchises in the NBA, the Detroit Pistons were founded in 1941 in Fort Wayne. Upon inception, the then Fort Wayne (Zollner) Pistons joined the old National Basketball League (NBL). They won back-to-back NBL Championships in 1944 and 1945 before becoming a part of the Basketball Association of America (BAA) in 1948.

One year later, when the NBL and BAA merged to form the National Basketball Association (NBA), the Pistons joined the new league. By that time, they had become a highly competitive outfit that regularly made the playoffs. In 1955, the Pistons reached their maiden NBA Finals and then repeated the feat a year later.

Just a couple of years after that, the franchise relocated to Detroit and has called the Motor City its home ever since. During this time, the Pistons have been based in a number of arenas, most notably the Cobo Arena (1961-1978), the Pontiac Silverdome (1978-1988) and The Palace of Auburn Hills (1988-2017).

In 2017, the team moved to the state-of-the-art Little Caesars Arena which they share with the NHL’s Detroit Red Wings. To enjoy the electrifying NBA game-day atmosphere at this magnificent facility, buy your Detroit Pistons tickets the first opportunity you get.

Championship Wins and Finest Moments

The Pistons have been playoff regulars for much of their history. To date, their impressive trophy haul consists of 9 Division titles, 7 Conference crowns and 3 NBA Championships. These include back-to-back triumphs in 1989 and 1990. The other win came in 2004.

Two of these three NBA title wins came after upsetting the star-studded Los Angeles Lakers (1989 and 2004) in the Finals. In particular, the 1989 victory came over a Lakers side that hadn’t dropped a game in the playoffs and contained stars like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson and Byron Scott.

Similarly, the Lakers went into the 2004 NBA Finals as favorites. With Kobe Bryant, Karl Malone, Shaquille O'Neal and Gary Payton in their ranks, few bet against the team from the City of Angels. However, the Pistons swept aside the star-studded Lakers in five games thanks to their rock-solid defense and better team cohesion. 

Greatest Players

The Pistons’ roster in every era has boasted some wonderful talents who have gone on to forge great careers in the game. These include the likes of Allen Iverson, Chauncey Billups, Dick McGuire, Bobby McDermott, Grant Hill, Tracy McGrady and Walt Bellamy among others.

The current crop of Pistons is also blessed with many gifted ballers such as Derrick Rose, Blake Griffin, Andre Drummond, Reggie Jackson and Christian Wood among others.
