After losing to the Hornets on Wednesday as the 1.5-point favorites, Detroit Pistons (3-6) will be looking to make amends when they host Houston Rockets (5-3) on Sunday night. Before that, the Pistons edged out the Hawks 122-121 on the road on Friday night to bounce back from their home loss against the Hornets. Still, they quickly need to improve their attacking numbers after scoring an average of 106.3 PPG this season, which is 26th in the league. Detroit could find it difficult to break up the Rockets' stubborn defense, which is averaging 106.8 PAPG (third in the NBA)). The Rockets also have a better scoring record of 113.8 PPG and will look to continue their hot streak, which has seen them win two of their last three matches. They have already exceeded expectations this season.
