Result: Loss
Point Spread: 6.50 | -108.00 Pistons (DET) (Away)
Result: Loss
T.M. Selection: Pistons.
The Pistons are off B2B losses but had been playing very well. The road team has won all 3 meetings between these teams this season including double digit blowouts in the two most recent meetings. The last one was in Detroit and the Pacers won by 11 points so the Pistons are out for revenge here. Indiana is off a big win and it was over in France versus the Spurs. Jet lag after the trip will not be easy to deal with here and the Pacers had lost 2 of 4 prior to that game. 1 of the 2 wins was the one against the Pistons in the Detroit 2 weeks ago and you know the Pistons are gunning hard for revenge here. Also, the last 3 times the Pistons were off B2B losses in which the most recent one was by a margin of 20 points or less, Detroit has gone a perfect 3-0 SU! The Pistons dominated the glass in the most recent meeting with a huge edge on the boards but the 3-point shooting disparity did them in. That is unlikely to be repeated here and I take advantage of what is now an inflated line with the Pacers in a tough spot after the travel to Europe.
T.M. Prediction: 116-114 Pistons
