Sunday, Dec 10 – Boston Celtics vs. Detroit Pistons

TV: NBA League Pass, 4:00 (ET)

Sunday features a rematch from November 27 in which the Pistons handed Boston their 4th loss of the season. The Celtics will look to get revenge as well as maintain the distance between them and the red hot Cavaliers.

In their meeting in November, the Pistons held Kyrie Irving to only 18 points but Marcus Smart did score a season high 23 points on 8-13 shooting. If Boston gets a better game from Irving then Boston should be getting revenge over former teammate Avery Bradley and Detroit.

Also keep an eye on: Philadelphia 76ers vs. New Orleans Pelicans

Sunday’s matchup between Philadelphia and New Orleans features three of the best bigs in the NBA in DeMarcus Cousins, Anthony Davis (if he plays) and the Philadelphia 76ers’ Joel Embiid. This one should be good.
