NEWARK, N.J. -- The Detroit Pistons aren't seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. They're just feeling better about themselves while riding their longest winning streak of the season and getting some key players back on the floor.

 

Greg Monroe had 20 points and 12 rebounds and the Pistons won their season-high third straight game with a 99-92 victory over the New Jersey Nets on Wednesday.

 

"We have to keep this hunger," said Monroe, who iced the game with a monster drive and jam with 2:27 to play. "We have to continue to play and give these efforts so the wins will come more often. But we have to continue to play like this."

 

In winning for the seventh time in 27 games, the Pistons played good team basketball. They had 29 assists on 39 baskets, outrebounded New Jersey 41-36 and shot a season-high 53.4 percent from the field.

 

"We're gaining more confidence in each other," Pistons coach Lawrence Frank said after his team won for only the second time on the road this season and snapped a seven-game slide away from the Motor City.
