Toronto at Detroit

Toronto has a reputation for getting up for Sunday games that are broadcast all over Canada. The Raptors are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 Sunday games. Toronto is also 14-6 ATS in their last 20 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. And they face a bad Detroit squad that is long out of the playoffs, but favored, but why? The Pistons are on a 2-6 SU, 3-5 ATS run, including losses the last two games by 32 and 11 points, and they were favored the last game against Minnesota on this court in a 91-80 defeat. Detroit has had problems scoring (No. 28 in the NBA) and rebounding (No. 27) all season and the Pistons are 1-4 ATS in their last five home games vs. a team with a losing road record. In addition, the Raptors are a good bounce-back team, 5-1 ATS in their last six games following a loss of more than 10 points. Play the Raptors.
