"We have to fight," was Siakam's conclusion after the Pacers lost their last game against the Raptors, their 12th loss in 13 attempts this season, marking the worst start to an NBA season in franchise history, especially painful considering they were the runners-up last season. Naturally, this number of losses can be attributed to the considerable number of injuries, but Siakam himself said that can no longer be an excuse.

While the Pacers are at the bottom of their conference, the Pistons, off to an electrifying start, are in first place with 11 wins after their latest 114-105 victory over the 76ers. They've won their last nine games, the franchise's best streak in the past two decades, and their latest win came with a shorthanded team missing Harris, Cunningham, and Jalen Duren due to injuries.

Even so, the Pistons made 17 of 41 three-point attempts in their victory against the Sixers; five players reached double figures in points, including Green, who scored 21.

Our Detroit Pistons vs Indiana Pacers Prediction

All smiles are on the Pistons' side; coach J.B. Bickerstaff emphasized the confidence his players have in each other and that the team enjoys it when the game gets messy and ugly.

Meanwhile, it's the complete opposite on the Pacers' side, with a disorganized defense that allowed over 120 points in each of their last three games; In their last game against the Raptors, they were as far behind on the scoreboard as 28 points.

Our prediction for Pistons vs Pacers is: Pistons -8.5.

Prediction:

 

Pistons -8.5.
