Task: Question Generation
Input (English): Passage: Detroit advanced to the NBA Conference Finals for the sixth straight season, squaring off against the Celtics. This put the Pistons second on the all-time list of most consecutive conference finals appearances, only behind the Los Angeles Lakers who appeared in eight straight conference finals from the 1981-82 to 1988-89 seasons. They lost Game 1 88-79, but won in Game 2 on the road, 103-97, marking the Celtics first home court loss in the  postseason. Immediately following that, the Celtics won their first road game of the postseason, 94-80, in Game 3. Game 4 saw the Pistons win 94-75. In the pivotal Game 5, they lost 106-102, despite rallying from 17 points down late in the game. In Game 6, the Pistons entered the fourth quarter leading 70-60, but a lack of focus, a poor game from Rasheed Wallace, and a rally-killing turnover by Tayshaun Prince ultimately led to their demise; the Pistons ended their season with an 89-81 loss. After that, the Celtics went on to win the 2008 NBA Finals. On June 3, 2008, the Pistons announced that Flip Saunders would not return as head coach.
Output (English): How many playoff games did the Pistons play in 2008?
