The 2007–08 Detroit Pistons season was the 67th season of the franchise, the 60th in the National Basketball Association (NBA), and the 51st in the Detroit area. The Central Division Pistons finished the regular season with a 59–23 record, 14 games ahead of the second place Cavaliers. Their 59 wins were the third most in franchise history. In the NBA Playoffs, Detroit advanced to the Eastern Conference finals for the sixth consecutive time since 2003, making them the first team since the 1986–87 Los Angeles Lakers to appear that many consecutive times in their respective Conference finals. The Pistons lost to the eventual NBA champions Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference finals two games to four. Their game 4 win over Boston on May 26, 2008, remains their most recent playoff victory. The Pistons had the seventh best team offensive rating in the NBA.^[1]

Following the season, Flip Saunders was fired as head coach.^[2] This was Chauncey Billups' final full season with the Pistons as he was traded to the Denver Nuggets the following season.

Detroit played its home games at The Palace of Auburn Hills in Auburn Hills, Michigan, which was sold out for each of the 41 regular season home games and all nine playoff games. The Pistons wore the #50 on the upper left side of their jerseys in honor of the 50th anniversary of them playing in Detroit. This season is the last time until the 2015–16 NBA season that the Pistons had a winning record and, as of 2024, the last time they placed better than 8th in the conference and won a playoff game or a series.

In the offseason, the Pistons re-signed guard Chauncey Billups and forward Amir Johnson. They also signed forward Antonio McDyess to a 2-year contract extension and center Cheikh Samb.

2008 playoff schedule

Chauncey Billups was awarded the John Walter Kennedy Citizenship Award for taking much part in NBA Cares and other charity foundations.

On May 13, 2008, Richard Hamilton surpassed Isiah Thomas as the all-time Piston leading scorer in the playoffs. Hamilton broke Thomas' record of 2,261 points and did it in 110 games — one fewer than Thomas needed to set the mark.^[3]

Chauncey Billups recorded his 10,000th career point November 14, 2007 against the Portland Trail Blazers.
