Detroit expects to be vastly improved with new coach J.B. Bickerstaff and finally some players who can shoot and have some experience at winning games, including Tobias Harris and Tim Hardaway Jr. Of course, Cade Cunningham is still the key to running the show and he scored 28 points against Indiana although the Pistons lost 115-109 after leading after each of the first three quarters before going cold in the fourth. Cleveland routed Toronto 136-106 and the Cavaliers finished last season 1-5 ATS after scoring more than 125 points their previous game. Bickerstaff knows the Cleveland team well as he was its coach last year and led the Cavaliers to their second straight playoff appearance. Don't expect the Cavaliers to shoot 59 percent again after hitting 51 of 87 shots against the Raptors. Take the Pistons.
