Hell no they won't. And they are not "that good." Does anyone here even remember the Mavericks handing their asses to them last month? 37 points was it?
The Bulls team that holds the record had three hall of famers in their starting lineup; the greatest player of all time, the greatest defensive wingman of all time, and the greatest defending, rebounding 4 of all time. Detroit OTOH doesn't have anyone capable of putting up 20 on a nightly basis. The Pistons' schedule so far this year has been very very kind to them (like Denver's schedule was at the end of last year) I'm personally not counting on them winning 60 games, let alone 70. Detroit's current team is nothing compared that juggernaught Chicago had in the 90's.
Edit: BTW, I remember last year people were talking about the Suns winning 70 games... It didn't happen for Phoenix and it won't happen for Detroit.
