Detroit has some good overall talent. They're not winning much but they are covering a lot on a 4-1 ATS run. The Pistons are also 6-0 ATS on the road against a team with a winning home record. Atlanta is a .500 team, but is the favorite here despite being a terrible defensive team at #24 in the NBA allowing 103.9 points per game. The Hawks also allow .474% shooting by opponents - #26 in the league. They're coming off another loss at home, 114-109 to the miserable Lakers. Atlanta is 2-5 ATS in their last seven home games. Atlanta has two days of rest here, but this team is 5-25 against the spread when playing on two days of rest. Play on Detroit.
