Detroit Pistons. How will they do this year?

As the name of my blog states, I have an opinion for almost anything. This goes out to the local Piston fans. How do you think they will do this year. On paper it looks like a 40-45 win team,but as we all know games aren't played on paper.I think Joe Dumars did well in free agency bringing in Charlie Villanueva and Ben Gordon. I wasn't too thrilled with the draft but who else could we take at that position in the draft.They're trying to rebuild on the fly which is not a bad thing,but we'll have to see what moves come by the trade deadline if any.I feel they won't be among the elite,but still competitive enough to put a scare into some of the  better teams. Personally i see a 43-39 finish in the regular season and somewhere between a 6 to 8 seed in the playoffs.
