Are the Detroit Pistons and San Antonio Spurs Unjustly Undervalued Heading into the Playoffs?

It may surprise or even outrage the widespread consensus surrounding Detroit Pistons and San Antonio Spurs regarding their actual chances of winning the ring this season. Despite the impressive performance both teams are displaying, they are not among the top favorites for the NBA title.

Lack of experience, lack of developed automatism when competing for the highest honors, and inconsistency in crucial moments compared to teams that have been contending for longer. These are the factors predominantly cited to exclude Detroit Pistons and San Antonio Spurs from the list of top contenders for the ring. Not even the leadership of LaMotown or the sufficiency of the young Spurs in the East seem to convince the majority.

While the competition is fierce, it cannot be overlooked that youth can also be a great advantage, and Cunningham and the young Victor can wreak havoc on any team. They do not start with the immediate obligation to win, which can allow them to play with less pressure than others and display joyful and carefree basketball. It would be wrong to rule out both teams from a battle where there will be many others, perhaps with more experience, but most not feeling as positive as Detroit Pistons and San Antonio Spurs do.
