Detroit at Portland

A long road trip for a Detroit team playing great defense for Stan Van Gundy, on a 4-0 run UNDER the total. Detroit has yet to allow more than 94 points, and Andre Drummond is becoming a force at both ends of the floor. Drummond grabbed at least 17 rebounds in four of the first five games and is averaging 18.6 points and 19 boards. The one flaw in his game continues to be free-throw shooting, and Detroit managed to kick off its road trip with a win despite Drummond going 2-of-13 from the line at Phoenix. The Pistons are 20-8 UNDER the total against the Western Conference. Detroit is third in the NBA in points allowed while Portland is 12th. The Blazers are also 10th in field goal shooting defense, while on a 7-1 run UNDER against a team with a winning record. Play this one to the UNDER.
