The 2014-15 Detroit Pistons season was marked by significant changes and a mid-season resurgence. The team finished with a 32-50 record, missing the playoffs for the sixth consecutive year. Under head coach Stan Van Gundy, who also took on the role of president of basketball operations, the Pistons aimed to rebuild and establish a new identity.
Early in the season, the team struggled, leading to a 5-23 start. However, the release of Josh Smith in December sparked a notable turnaround, with the Pistons winning seven consecutive games immediately afterward. The roster also saw changes with the acquisition of Reggie Jackson at the trade deadline, aiming to solidify the point guard position. Despite these efforts, the team couldn’t maintain consistency, ultimately finishing 12th in the Eastern Conference. Andre Drummond emerged as a key player, showcasing his potential with impressive performances throughout the season.
- Regular Season Record: 32-50
