Detroit at Charlotte

Detroit is on the playoff bubble, just behind Charlotte for the 8th and final spot. The Pistons have a strong frontcourt (7th in the NBA in rebounds) and they are averaging 31.8 points from their bench. These teams met last night and Charlotte surprised with a win at Detroit as the Pistons big men got in foul trouble. But the Bobcats are 15-39 ATS playing on no days rest and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 home games vs. a team with a losing road record.  Charlotte is not a strong offensive team (26th in scoring) and ranks 23rd in rebounding. Despite what happened last night the Pistons are 15-7 ATS in the last 22 meetings. In addition, the dog is 11-4 ATS in the last 15 meetings and the Pistons are 7-0 ATS in the last seven meetings in Charlotte. Play Detroit.
