The Celtics are certainly more talented than the Pistons but they're far from unbeatable. In fact, at 28-25, they've underperformed this year. Still, they are 10-point favorites against the Pistons who are likely going to be without Cade Cunningham and still figuring things out since Kelly Olynyk and Jerami Grant returned to the lineup.

Probable Starters

As you can see, Cunningham is not listed among the probable starters, which means that Rodney McGruder could get the nod for the second night in a row. Last night he struggled scoring just six points in 17 minutes of action, while Frank Jackson stepped up in a big way. If the Pistons are going to beat Boston tonight, McGruder will have to contribute a lot more.
