Paul Pierce will start

This is huge news for the Celtics who are desperate for their 1st win of the season. They are home to a much maligned Detroit squad that cannot seem to get out of their own way. I would be surprised if the C's don't pull it out tonight. Detroit struggles on offense and having to go up against Boston's defense is not the cure for that. Also, with Pierce back on offense, they will have their best pure scorer out there to handle the load on offense. Boston is favored by 10 tonight, I'd say it's a near lock they surpass that and blow Detroit out.

Prediction: 102-81
