76ers Spotlight

The Philadelphia 76ers are coming off a big 5-point win over the Chicago Bulls, while pulling off their 4th straight victory. They’ve also covered 3 straight against the number, and they’ve been doing it even though they’ve been hit by the injury bug. The 76ers have been a machine from an offensive standpoint, ranking 9th in points per game, 1st in field goal percentage, and 3rd in 3-point percentage.

Pistons Spotlight

The Detroit Pistons took their 2nd straight loss, this time a 28 point loss to the Milwaukee Bucks. The Pistons have been miserable lately going 1-11 SU in their last 12 games, and 2-10 ATS during that span. They’ve also gone 1-6 ATS in last 7 home games, and 0-6 ATS in their last 6 home games as underdogs. It doesn’t end there, they are also 1-12 SU in their last 13 games versus an Eastern Conference opponent.

Final Say

The 76ers are coming off of a big win to face a crappy team, with another matchup in Chicago lurking after this game. They also are working on 0 days rest. The problem is that the Pistons are shitty, ranking 30th in points per game, field goal percentage, and 3-point percentage. They also have gone 4-11 ATS in their last 15 vs the 76ers. Meanwhile, the 76ers have gone 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games versus a team with a win percentage below .400. The Piston’s are shooting just 38% in their last 4 games compared to the 76ers 51%. Just can’t see the Piston’s keeping up in this one. 

Pick: Philadelphia 76ers -5
