"The Heat did go 2-1 against Detroit this season, winning their last two games against them. The one game they lost to them was a three-point defeat."
"In theory, the Pistons, of the projected top 4 seeds, are also the team that is less proven of the bunch. They're young, don't have a ton of playoff experience, and their best player is currently sidelined with an injury."
"While they would never admit it, the Heat would be confident heading into a first-round playoff matchup against the Pistons."
The Miami Heat are struggling but might favor a first-round playoff matchup against the Detroit Pistons. The Heat have a 2-1 record against the Pistons this season. The Pistons are less proven, with their best player, Cade Cunningham, currently injured. If Cunningham returns with rust, it could benefit the Heat. The Pistons' other leading scorers are not particularly intimidating, leading to a sense of confidence for the Heat in this potential matchup.
