Iguodala's triple-double fuels rout of Pistons

Basketball Betting Lines

01/28/2012 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Before starting a brutal seven-game stretch Monday, the Philadelphia 76ers had to take care of business against the Detroit Pistons on Saturday night.

On his 28th birthday, Andre Iguodala recorded his eighth career triple-double with 10 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists as Philadelphia routed Detroit, 95-74.

Lou Williams added 17 points for the Sixers, who moved to 10-2 at home this season. They have outscored their opponents by double-figures in each of those victories.

Greg Monroe finished with 16 points and 10 rebounds to lead the Pistons, who have lost four straight and eight of their last nine.

The Sixers sit atop the Atlantic Division at 14-6, but rank near the bottom of the NBA in strength of schedule heading into a tough stretch that will give them an opportunity to disprove some of their skeptics.

It begins with home games against the Magic, Bulls and Heat, then a road game in Atlanta. The Sixers will return home to play the Lakers, Spurs and Clippers after that. Those seven teams had a combined 90 wins entering play Saturday.

While on a fastbreak midway through the first quarter, Iguodala dribbled into the paint and leapt while looking to pass. Before his toes hit the floor, Iguodala passed to himself off the backboard and emphatically put through his own alley-oop with a two-handed flush.

The play ignited a 14-0 Sixers run, pushing their lead to 21-8 late in the opening quarter before it was 24-14 going into the second. Williams and Jodie Meeks both hit a pair of three-pointers in the period.

The Sixers took a 42-31 lead into the break. Williams netted 10 first-half points to pace Philadelphia while Detroit shot just 33.3 percent.

Philadelphia continued to hold its double-digit advantage in the third before taking a 69-53 lead into the final quarter. Elton Brand and Iguodala netted six points apiece in the stanza.

The Sixers led by as many as 29 in the fourth, cruising to the easy win.
