The Detroit Pistons will face the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday.
The afternoon battles comes after a disappointing loss at home against the New York Knicks. While the Pistons have had a trend of keeping games close no matter the result, the Knicks matchup certainly wasn’t the same situation.
Head coach JB Bickerstaff mentioned after the game that the Pistons’ defense was too easy for the Knicks’ offensive attack. The one-two punch of Jalen Brunson and Karl Anthony-Towns was just too much for Detroit. In the end, the Pistons left their Friday night matchup with a 128-98 loss. They dropped to 1-5 on the year.
Sunday will be an opportunity to face a non-playoff team for the first time since the Pistons fired up their 2024-2025 schedule. However, that factor doesn’t make it easier. Despite the Nets being one of the NBA’s known rebuilding squads, they have found some success lately. Entering the game, Brooklyn holds a 3-3 record. They won their last two games, and hold a winning home record of 2-1. In four meetings last season, the Pistons picked up one of their 14 wins. Overall, the Nets defeated the Pistons three out of four times.Apr 6, 2024; Brooklyn, New York, USA; Brooklyn Nets shooting guard Cam Thomas shoots a three-point jump shot over Detroit Pistons point guard Jaden Ivey during the second half at Barclays Center.
