Someone should let Kornheiser know the Pistons are coming for the Bulls

That was a quote for style, not an actual quote.
I honestly hope no one on the team said that. It sounds even dumber coming from one of them.
What are they coming for? They are what 25+ games behind CHI. They're playing out the string while CHI is gearing up for a playoff run.
Unless they take a monumental step they won't even challenge the Bulls next year. It's taking a moral victory in a game that they should have won. It's dumb like some of those "closing the gap" threads. Its silly for fans to think it, its downright dumb for the players to say it.
I assumed the "we're coming" implied that a year or so down the road the Pistons feel like they'll be on the same competitive plane as Chicago. Ambitious as it may be, a player has to think that they're always just a step or two behind from being really competitive each night.
