The Pistons got a break in not having to face Dwayne Wade last night at Miami but they didn’t take advantage of his absence and the Heat had no problem in beating Detroit 98-to-75.

Wade sat out with an ankle injury but LeBron James posted 26 points to pace the Heat while Chris Bosh added 22 points and nine rebounds for Miami.

Brandon Knight led the Pistons with 16 points while Greg Monroe chipped in with 11 points.  Tonight, it’s Detroit at Orlando
