Pistons vs Pacers (12/19/2003) Game Predictions.

[Pooh]

Tonight we have the first game of ESPN's Friday night basketball. Some cheesy team from San Antonio has the second game but we know whose better.

A rematch of October 29th's season opener, won by the Pacers 89-87. The game marks the first appearance of former Pacers' coach Larry Brown as the new coach of the Pistons. The Pacers try once again to become the first team with 20 wins this year while the Pistons continue to chase the Pacers in the Central Division.

A repeat of the season opener.

Pacers 96
Pistons 87

I think we'll rebound from last game and beat the pistons. The Pacers will be ready for this one unlike the last few games.

Pacers.......84
Pistons......81

Billups: 23 pts., 10 ast.

Artest: 25 pts., 9 reb.

Carlisle vs Detriot 2

This should be an awsome game. Tons of energy as this is becoming one of the best NBA rivarlies in the NBA.

O'Neal needs to dominate and Artest can not do anything stupid as Detriot will probably try to get under his skin like they always do. Rumours have it, Darko will see around 15-17 minutes tonight, hopefully he doesn't break out tonight.

Pacers: 93
Detriot 86

Miller: 27pts
O'Neal: 24pts, 13boards, 4blocks
Artest: 16pts, 9boards, 5 assists

Rip Hamilton: 12pts thanks to Artest.
