In what is already going to be the third meeting between the Brooklyn Nets and the Detroit Pistons can become yet another win for the Nets. Unfortunately for Detroit, they have the worst record in the league at 4-21, but that doesn’t mean that Brooklyn can underestimate them. Especially while being short-handed.
It’s going to be extremely difficult for the Nets to facilitate the offense without their primary playmaker, James Harden. However, they can still dominate in this game solely off of their offensive firepower. What will be key for them to getting this victory is trusting their defense and playing the right way offensively by limiting turnovers.
Nets vs Pistons notable injuries:
Kyrie Irving (not with team), James Harden (rest), Paul Millsap (personal reasons) and Joe Harris (ankle recovery) are out for Brooklyn.
Jerami Grant (thumb recovery), Kelly Olynyk (MCL) and Chris Smith (knee) are out for Detroit.
