Detroit is going with a lot of young hungry kids and it's paying off, off a 114-109 win at Houston as a +11 dog. Rookie forward Henry Ellenson was given his first career start Friday and responded with 15 points and 11 rebounds. The Pistons are 7-3 ATS against the Western Conference. Memphis is a big favorite, but #29 in the NBA in points scored (only Dallas is worse). The seventh seed in the Western Conference playoffs was locked up with Friday's 101-88 win over the New York Knicks, which means the Grizzlies will be playing the San Antonio Spurs in the first round. Memphis already announced that sixth man Zach Randolph will sit this one out, and other key figures will get some rest as the team plays out a four-game homestand to finish the regular season. The road team has covered six of eight when these teams clash, and the dog has covered seven in a row. Back the Detroit Pistons.
