Detroit has always been good at rebounding, No. 5 in the league, but since making a chemistry change in December this team has been covering and winning; a lot. The Pistons have won eight of nine contests since they waived Josh Smith on Dec. 22nd. Their offensive output has risen from 94.4 to 106.2 points per game, and their field-goal percentage has jumped from 41.3 to 46.5 percent.  The Pistons are 5-0 SU/ATS on the road and 3-1 at home, losing only to Southeast-leading Atlanta 106-103 on Friday. Toronto is home and favored, but just 1-4 SU/ATS the last five games, beating only the Celtics. They just came back from a long road trip out West and have looked out of sync.  The Raptors allowed 114.0 points per game during their 4-game losing streak, making this a great spot for the dog to pull a straight up surprise. Play Detroit on the Moneyline.
