Last year the Pistons were 4-12 on Sundays, but have started this year 1-0 after last week's win against the 76ers. Detroit can hopefully build off that and increase their winning streak to four games this evening against the Dallas Mavericks, who have won four of their last five.
Detroit, who is 0-2 on the night after traveling, were hopefully able to get enough rest and can carry a lot of the intensity they showed last night into tonight's game. Detroit is 3-1 at home, but lost both games they played against Dallas last year and were killed in Dallas this preseason.
