San Antonio at Detroit

The Pistons are one of the best home teams in the NBA at 24-6, and are coming into this one off a home loss. They have gone 47 home games without losing back-to-back at home, and this year in their next home game following a loss they have destroyed teams, going 5-0 SU and 5-0 ATS, beating the pointspread by an average of over 10 points per game! They are now 8-0 SU and 7-1 ATS during this streak, the lone loss by a half-point. San Antonio made a good run winning 11 straight, but have made the downward turn again, losing three of four. The Spurs have sputtered on the road at 17-15. That breaks down to 13-3 against teams under .500, and a woeful 4-12 vs teams .500+. The Spurs have only covered one of their last nine, and Detroit is potent off home loss, so we will back them here.
