The Miami Heat will put their winning streak at stake when they collide with the No.1 team in the Eastern Conference, the Detroit Pistons, at Kaseya Center on Saturday.
The Heat are 3-point favorites ahead of their first clash with the Pistons this season.
Current Form:
The Heat scored their sixth consecutive win after edging the Giannis-less Milwaukee Bucks, 106-103, on Wednesday. Tyler Herro fired 29 points and Bam Adebayo racked up 17 points and 11 boards to lead the charge for Miami, which shot 46 percent from the field and hounded the Bucks to 42 percent shooting. The Heat boasts the second-best offense in the NBA at 122.0 points per game but this team has also tightened things up defensively as they clamped down the Bucks and the Mavs under 103 points in back-to-back games.
The Pistons will try to rebound from their first back-to-back losses this season in Saturday’s marquee matchup with the Heat. Detroit’s 13-game winning streak had met its end following a 114-117 loss to the Boston Celtics before bowing to the Orlando Magic 109-112 two days later. The Pistons carry the 8th-best offense in the NBA at 119.3 points per game and the 7th-best defense at 112.9 points allowed per game.

Our Miami Heat vs Detroit Pistons Prediction
Fearless Forecast: I expect the Pistons to bounce back from their back-to-back losses by coming through with a signature win over the Heat on Saturday. Detroit fell to two solid Eastern Conference teams in the Celtics and the Magic, but I expected head coach JB Bickerstaff to make the necessary adjustments that would put the Pistons in a position to win again. The Heat are not a pushover team. Miami has the third-best record in the East at 13-6 and is coached by one of the best minds in basketball, Erik Spoelstra. However, the Pistons are here to stay in the upper echelon of the East. They have the personnel, system, and vibe of a true contender. I believe this young Detroit team will overcome its first adversity of their fresh campaign by pulling off a win over one of the most explosive teams in the NBA this season.
