The Coach's Sunday Night SMACKDOWN SPECIAL
(NBA) Detroit vs. Miami,
Point Spread: 3.00 | -105.00 Detroit (Away)
Result: Loss
The Miami Heat return home from a four game road trip with only one win to show for it, and they could be in for another tough game tonight. They host a red hot Pistons team that is in search of their fifth consecutive victory. I'll take the hot team getting a few points on the road in this one.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Previous History - The Heat have won four of the last six meetings in this series, but Detroit has covered the spread in four of those games. The home team has only covered the spread once in the last six meetings between these two teams.

2. Injuries - Hassan Whiteside, Dwyane Wade and Chris Anderson are all dealing with various ailments, and all three players are questionable to see action in tonight's game.

3. X-Factor - Reggie Jackson scored 26 points with 11 rebounds and 10 assists against Orlando on Friday, recording his second triple-double in his last five games.

Selection: This is a play on the Detroit Pistons (8*)
