Detroit is 5-0 ATS their last 5 away games and 4-0-1 their last 5 overall. The Nets are 3-11 ATS in their last 14, and to top it all off, New Jersey is a 22-20 team playing the league best 37-5 Detroit Pistons. Add to this that Jason Kidd is having some knee issues, and R. Jefferson is suffering from a slight illness (both listed as questionable, but should play tonight) and it looks as though this will be a one-sided match up. The Pistons are still looking at the Bulls 72-10 overall record and they surely aren't going to let a team playing .500 basketball to stand in their way, even if it is an away game. Look for the Pistons to come out strong and play very physical against a team who has a few weaker players down low. Give the 6 and take Detroit for three stars.
