Detroit at Milwaukee

Premium Pick

The teams have met four times this season and Milwaukee won all four with a 3-0-1 ATS record. Detroit managed to get into the postseason despite losing four of its last six games and was fortunate to play lowly Memphis and New York in the final two games of the season. The Pistons have had terrible shooting teams the last few years and this one was no exception as they have a .440 field goal percentage while the Bucks allow opponents only a .433 shooting percentage. The Bucks finished the regular season with the best record in the NBA at 60-22 with an excellent 47-31-4 spread record. Also, Milwaukee has arguably the best player in the Eastern Conference if not the league in Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Pistons' best player, Blake Griffin, is questionable with a sore left knee. The UNDER is 5-2-1 the last eight meetings and the Pistons have gone UNDER four of their last five games. Detroit had a recent game when it scored 31 points in the first half. Play the Bucks for the game and the first half to stay UNDER.
