Pistons vs. Rockets preview: Someone has to win (but probably not the viewers)

When the Houston Rockets beat the Detroit Pistons back on Jan. 22, it sparked a six-game win streak for Houston. Fast forward a couple months and things look much different. The Rockets have moved on from P.J. Tucker and DeMarcus Cousins, and they haven’t notched a victory since Feb. 4.

This time around, former Piston Christian Wood is back in the Houston lineup and looking to break a franchise-record 18-game losing streak.

Analysis

The Rockets certainly aren’t trying very hard to win games, but it’s hard to imagine they’re not in need of a morale boost based on their performance the last couple months.
