This game looks like an entire mismatch if it plays out accordingly, but a lot of these best vs. worst types of games tend to leave the elite team with little motivation and thinking they just have to show up to put one in the win column. The Pistons are 10-32 on the season, but they have logged half of those 10 wins in just their last nine games and have played significantly better. They have recorded shocking wins at Milwaukee and at Utah in the stretch. Golden State is just 1-4 ATS in their last five games in the role of a favorite, and they certainly look to be in a vulnerable spot here as they are also just 2-5 straight up in their last seven. Plus, they are off a loss to Minnesota by 20 points their last time out. Make the play on Detroit.
