Pistons need a win to carry some momentum into the big game on Sunday vs. the Lakers. After all, Detroit is just 3-10 on the road this season and could desperately use one against the typically futile Thunder.

Detroit lost to the Thunder earlier this season at the Palace in similar fashion to the way they lost on Wednesday against the Hornets. Should the Thunder walk away with a win tonight they will sweep the season series and Detroit will fall to 0-7 in games on the road out west.

Richard Hamilton and Ben Gordon are out again tonight, and there was a big piece in the Free Press about how Rodney Stuckey is experiencing problems all over his body. Even so, he should be OK in OKC.
