NBA 2K12 Association: Detroit Pistons (League Update)

Seemingly overnight, the Pistons went from bottom-feeders to true contenders. After a slow start, the Pistons are now tied with the Bucks for the lead in the Central. The Bulls, early favorites before the Derrick Rose trade, have slowed down. Despite a current .500 record, they are tied with the Cavaliers and Pacers.

The Jazz and Celtics are really struggling. They are the only two teams yet to win. The Nuggets and Thunder are not living up to expectations. They each have only one win.

In addition to the Pistons, the Warriors, Timberwolves, Nets, and Hornets are true surprises in the NBA. They are all in the top 10 of Power Rankings. This should not be seen as a true barometer for success, though. The Suns were #6, but fell to #15 after a terrible loss to the Pistons.

Largely in part to the sliders that I'm using (TombaSports360; they are great!), lots of cheap extensions have been given out. Star players such as Steve Nash, Brandon Roy (FA to the Kings), Yao Ming (FA to the Wizards), Grant Hill, George Hill, Antawn Jamison, and Ray Allen have signed deals. The most expensive per year is only $5 million!

Many stars have fallen to injury as well. They include Paul Pierce, Danny Granger, Gilbert Arenas (FA to Memphis), Jeremy Lin (who ironically has a sore knee), and Andre Stoudemire. All will be out for at least one week and at most (for Paul Pierce) 4-6 weeks.
