Detroit at Milwaukee

The Milwaukee Bucks are off to a 7-7 start, and that is a lot better than expected. It all came down to a hot stretch where the Bucks surprisingly won five of six games. The bad news for their fans is they have been 2-6 otherwise, and have lost two straight to fall to .500. Detroit is 3-10, but they are so very close to getting over the top. The Pistons have seen 8 of their 13 games close with a margin of 7 points one way or the other, so things aren't as bad as they look. One of those games was a 3-point win vs. Milwaukee, who isn't playing at the level they were just a week ago. The Pistons have been at their best at facing a team with a home winning percentage of greater than .600 where they are 19-7 ATS in their last 26. The road team is 8-2 ATS in the last 10 in this series, and I think the Pistons sneak up on the Bucks tonight. Play the points on Detroit.
