The 23-32 #Pistons will host the 33-24 Dallas Mavericks Saturday night at The Palace of Aubrun Hills. The Pistons are coming off a great win against the Hawks, while the Mavericks are playing great basketball of late.

The bad: The Mavericks have won nine of 10 in against the Pistons and four of their last five at The Palace. They have also won four of five on the road and seven of their last nine.
The unknown: Can Detroit match the intensity and hustle they showed Friday night to get the comeback win against Atlanta? Can Kyle Singler continue to shoot well? Will Andre get his 41st double-double?
Injuries: Pistons: None
Mavericks: Gal Mekel Out
Stat: Detroit has lost four consecutive games against Dallas.
Stat: Brandon Jennings led the Pistons with 26 points and seven assists and Dirk Nowitzki led the Mavericks with 28 points and

great game by josh smith, unfortunately drummond was exhausted otherwise we might have taken this one. coach seems to have taken jennings out of the 4th quarter. Is this on purpose because of brandon’s tendency to play hero ball in the 4th?
