The Pistons had a win streak snapped on Sunday in a surprising home loss. The team needs to gel with Jackson back in the mix. It may take some time and I don’t know that it will happen tonight against the Bulls. Chicago has some issues with Rondo, but I still think the Bulls have the fire power to stay with Detroit tonight and maybe even grab a win.
