Detroit Pistons Team History
The Detroit Pistons basketball franchise was founded in 1937 as the Fort Wayne Zollner Pistons, a semi-professional basketball squad. Then, as the Fort Wayne Pistons, they played in the NBA as a professional squad against the likes of the Boston Celtics, Philadelphia Warriors, St. Louis Hawks, and Minneapolis Lakers.
In the early years, the Pistons were a perennial playoff team. Then, the golden age of the Pistons came: the 1980s. Hall of Fame coach Chuck Daly led an impressive Detroit squad: Isiah Thomas, Bill Laimbeer, Joe Dumars, and Dennis Rodman led the Pistons to back-to-back championships. Detroit had a lot of success in the 1980s and 1990s, and the franchise’s titles came in 1989 and 1990.
Detroit continued to look strong with Rick Carlisle at the helm. He coached Chauncey Billups, Richard Hamilton, Ben Wallace, Rasheed Wallace, and Tayshaun Prince to the 2004 NBA championship. The Pistons are looking for another strong group of players to bring together for another championship soon.
Detroit Pistons Division Rivals and NBA Rivals
Chicago Bulls vs. Detroit Pistons Tickets
Although the Bulls and Pistons played in the playoffs in 1974 (Chicago won in seven games), their rivalry did not start until the 1980s. The 1987-88 season was when the feud started, and they met in one conference semifinal (1988) and three conference finals (1989 to 1991).
Detroit dominated their way to three straight series victories, and two of those years culminated in championships. However, Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen led the Bulls past the Pistons in 1991 en route to Chicago’s first title.
Boston Celtics vs. Detroit Pistons Tickets
Those same Pistons with Isiah Thomas and Bill Laimbeer also had dealings with the Boston Celtics. Just as the Bulls took the Eastern Conference baton from the Pistons, the Pistons took it from the Celtics. The Pistons' 1985 and 1987 playoff runs ended when they faced the Celtics. However, Detroit then beat Boston in 1988, 1989, and 1991.
Los Angeles Lakers vs. Detroit Pistons Tickets
Around the same time as the Celtics rivalry, the Pistons had their rivalry brewing with the Lakers. The meetups in the Finals were very captivating, as they split their meetings in 1988 (Lakers victory) and 1989 (Pistons victory). Then in 2004, the Pistons won their third NBA championship in five games against an aged Lakers squad.
