Detroit can't score or rebound, ranked No. 28 in the NBA in points scored (90.5 points per game) and No. 27 in rebounding. That's bad news against a big Chicago team that is great in both areas, tops in rebounds, second in points allowed and fourth in field goal shooting defense (.427% allowed). Chicago is on an 8-4-1 run UNDER the total and Derrick Rose and Richard Hamilton are still not in synch offensively after so much time off. Rose is off a 1-for-13 nightmare against the Heat, but this group brings its best defense every night for demanding Coach Tom Thibodeau. Detroit plays its best defense at home and the UNDER is 5-2 in the Pistons’ last seven games as a home underdog. The UNDER is also 5-2 in the last seven meetings. Take the UNDER here.
