Detroit at Philadelphia

Premium Pick

The futility of the Philadelphia 76ers continues, as this team is mired in an 0-26 run over their last 26 games. Mysteriously, despite the horrible turn, the Sixers are just +5.5 point underdogs here, after playing each of their last eight as a double-digit dog. Detroit hasn't exactly been playing great, but one thing a hideous losing streak does to an opponent is motivate them. No team wants to be the one that loses to the team that is in the depths of a huge losing streak. I'm not sure what, if anything, Philadelphia has left in the tank right now, but I do know that the Pistons will be motivated, which should certainly be enough for a road win. Take Detroit straight-up.
