02/12/2012 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The improving Detroit Pistons shoot for a season-high fifth straight win when they take on the lowly Washington Wizards in the middle contest of a three-game homestand.
Greg Monroe recorded 18 points and 11 rebounds as the Pistons rolled over the New Jersey Nets, 109-92, in the back end of a home-and-home series at The Palace on Friday. Monroe, an emerging star has recorded a double-double in four straight games and now has 15 on the season.
Jonas Jerebko added 20 points off the bench, while Rodney Stuckey had 19 for the Pistons, who also topped the Nets in New Jersey, 99-92, on Wednesday.
"It's just always fun to win, so hopefully we can continue doing this," said Stuckey. "When the ball is moving, that is when we are at our best."
Detroit, which will finish its residency against San Antonio, is now 6-8 at The Palace of Auburn Hills.
The Wizards, who are starting a five-game road trip tonight, have lost two straight, including Friday's 106-89 setback to Miami in D.C.
JaVale McGee scored 24 points and pulled down 13 rebounds, while Nick Young added 22 points in that one for the Wizards, who have dropped six of their last seven games overall. Trevor Booker had 13 points and 15 boards, while John Wall scored 15 with 10 helpers for the Wizards.
"That is a tough team to play over there," said Young. "You can learn a lot playing teams like that."
Detroit has won seven straight home games over Washington, which is a dismal 1-10 as the visitor on the season. The Wiz haven't won at The Palace since Jan. 26, 2007.
The Wizards will also face Portland, the LA Clippers, Utah and Phoenix on their trek.

Albert Pujols to be This Year's Home Run Champ Says Online Sportsbook
Barry Bonds is a 50-1 long shot to be this year's home run champ odds. The favorite to be this year's home run champ is none other than Albert Pujols, however.
Now that Barry Bonds is signed and in Giants camp, it is on to his pursuit of all of sports most prestigious records: the all-time home run mark. Bonds sits just 21 homers shy of tying Hank Aaron for the career mark at 755. Word out of Giants’ camp is that Bonds is the healthiest he has been in a few years. Bonds is just two seasons removed from his injury riddled 2005 campaign where he played in only 14 games and hit only 5 home runs. He did come back last year and had a solid season hitting .270 with 26 bombs. All eyes will be on Bonds this spring and summer not only because of his home run chase but his highly publicized steroid abuse allegations. If and when Bonds breaks the record, he surely will not get the positive attention one should for breaking a record that was once thought of as “unbreakable”. Despite Bonds decent season last year, he is just 50-1 at MySportsbook.com to lead the MLB in long balls this season.
Not surprisingly, the favorites to go deep the most times this season are Albert Pujols 5-1, Ryan Howard 6-1, David Ortiz 8-1 and Alex Rodriguez 12-1. With 49 homers, Pujols finished second in the National League behind Howard (58). Pujols is considered the favorite due to the consistent power numbers that he has posted since breaking into the league in 2001. Also one must consider the fact that he played in 16 fewer games then Howard did due to an injury. Howard smashed 58 homers in his first complete season of big league play en route to the National League MVP odds award. He silenced his critics by successfully hitting left-handed pitching. Howard also displayed the ability to use his power to the opposite field. Two attributes which should keep Howard amongst the league leaders in long balls for years to come. From the American League representatives, David Ortiz leads the field. Ortiz was second in the majors last year with 54 home runs. Except for 1999 when he only played in 10 games, Ortiz has improved on his home run numbers each year he has been in the majors (1997).
