Pistons team u- Another game which I like the game under. High spread gives a pretty high number for the Pistons, one that although i think they likely win comfortably, may be too high given their style of play vs. the Heat. In the last 5 meetings between these teams Detroit has failed to score over 95 points. In their last 6 home games the Stones have scored over 101 one time (103 pts vs Toronto shooting 50%/ 61% 3 pointers). Unless the Heat put up a good fight, & the Pistons shoot extraordinarily well, I would expect Detroit to score 85-95 range....
Pacers/Knicks- Pacers play zero D, & have been allowing pts in bunches- just look at their past couple games played. They are on a b2b, but have scored over 200's on b2b this year- over the # vs mem, Den, Utah, Chi, MIA, Phx, & Orl on b2b games. I think the Pacers have a [pretty good chance at winning, but they don't play D so they're tough to back. Still someone has to win, & I get the feeling the winner puts up 110+. Hoping for good shooting, as I think the numer is pretty on, but still beatable.
