Posted by pistonsnation


The Pistons (5-4, 3-1 home) will be hosting the Dallas Mavericks (6-3) tip off from the Palace will be at 6:00 pm est. The game will be televised locally on Fox Sports Detroit (nationally on NBA TV) and can be heard on WWJ 950.

Mavericks’ Snapshot
Road record: 2-3
Vs. East: 1-1
Last game: 11/13 (Fri) W 89-77 @ T-Wolves
Streak: Won 1
Injuries: Tim Thomas (day-to-day, knee), Josn Howard (out indefinitely, ankle)

After struggling to find a rhythm with out Rip Hamilton and Tayshaun Prince the Pistons are now on a nice 3 game win streak.  To keep the momentum going they’re going to have to win against a more formidable opponent in the Southwest Division leading Dallas Mavericks.

ALSO OF NOTE: The Mavs are 4 1/2 pt favorites … The Pistons are taking on their third straight former coach (Rick Carlisle, Flip Saunders, Larry Brown) … The Mavs have taken 4 of the last 5 from the Pistons including last season’s series … Dirk Nowiztski is averaging 25.8 ppg and 9.1 rpg … Pistons are 1-0 on Sundays … Pistons start a four game Western road trip on Tuesday …   VOTE PISTONS!
