Premium Pick

Detroit made a remarkable turnaround this season, but the Pistons appear to have run out of gas, losing six of their last eight games (2-6 ATS) in the regular season. One of the wins was against New York on April 10, which puts the Knicks in a revenge spot, and they have covered seven of their past 10 games while playing a tough schedule in that span. Detroit has lost 16 of the past 19 meetings, and the Pistons have lost 13 of their past 16 April games dating to last season. New York has covered eight of nine as a favorite, and the Pistons are 0-5-1 ATS in their past six as road underdogs. Detroit is 0-5 ATS in its past five road contests versus teams with .600 home winning percentages. New York has stayed UNDER four straight as a home favorite and seven of nine overall. The Knicks allow 53.6 points in the first half in home games. Take the Knicks and the first half UNDER.
