The Houston Rockets are looking to improve their defense as they prepare to face the Detroit Pistons after a disappointing 126-107 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder. Houston's coach Ime Udoka expressed frustration over the team's lack of communication and physicality during that game, where they allowed 51.1% shooting from the Thunder. Meanwhile, Pistons' star Cade Cunningham showcased an impressive performance against the Atlanta Hawks, achieving a triple-double with 22 points, 11 rebounds, and 13 assists, including a game-winning block. The Pistons, despite some struggles with turnovers, managed to secure a win and are looking to build momentum with a record of 4-6. The upcoming matchup on Sunday will be critical for both teams as the Rockets aim to bounce back and the Pistons seek to continue their positive streak.
