The Detroit Pistons went into the Meadowlands and pulled out the victory with their backs against the wall. Final score: 81-75.
Richard Hamilton led the Pistons with 24 points. Richard Jefferson let the Nets with 23.
"We went with a big lineup," Pistons coach Larry Brown said. "Memo (Okur), Ben, Rasheed together really did a good job."
The Pistons regain homecourt advantage, and momentum, just in time for the final, decisive game. Game 7 at the Palace of Auburn Hills on Thursday night promises to be a dogfight.
