The Pistons are just a really good team. There is not much to say about it other than that they win games and have just a solid all-around team. JB Bickerstaff is one of the most underrated coaches in the NBA and has a lot of talent for getting the most out of all his guys. The Pistons might be even better if they get these 6 Christmas Wishes!

3. Houston Rockets

The Rockets just have a feel that is different from the rest of the top teams in the NBA. They feel like they can get the job done against anyone. Even their losses have been very tight, and they are just a great team that can beat anyone at any time.
