Somebody should let the Thunder know the race is over. They have a 14.5 game lead in the West, but they’ve been playing like they’re three games out with three games to play. They’ve won 17 of their last 18 and covered the number in 12 of L14. And they are winning by margin, outsourcing their opponents by 16 or more in seven of their last eight. The Pistons are a team that turns the ball over 15.1 times per game, and they’re squaring off against a Thunder squad that has the fewest number of offensive turnovers and forces the most and defense. Finally, the Pistons will again be without Cade Cunningham as well as three solid depth players due to suspension after Sunday’s melee against the T-Wolves. The Thunder roll against this short-handed Detroit team.
