Detroit Pistons visit the Brooklyn Nets this Sunday night. The team from the Motor City again started the season poorly, while the Nets have looked well this past week. Even though they have some injury problems, Jordi Fernandez’s boys are apparently on the rise.
Detroit Pistons News
The Pistons are 1-5 right now and in terrible form. Sure, their schedule was tough, with them meeting all the top teams in the East, like the Celtics, Cavs, 76ers, Heat, and Knicks, but we aren’t satisfied with their performances.
Detroit needs a scorer under the rim because its centers (Duren and Stewart) generate 11.2 points per game combined. They average more than 16 boards, but they are still terrible when it comes to scoring. Cade Cunningham is the top scorer in the unit, with 25 points per game.
Brooklyn Nets News
Brooklyn was better than the Chicago Bulls at home, 120-112. Previously, they suffered an OT defeat also at home to the Nuggets, 144-139, before beating the Memphis Grizzlies in Tennessee, 119-106.
Cam Thomas was unstoppable with 32 points, while four more players had 10+ points in Brooklyn. Also, Dennis Schroder had nine with seven boards and assists, and Ben Simmons had eight with 11 assists and eight rebounds. All in all, it was an excellent display of a team game.
