Indiana at Detroit

The Pistons might be without 3 out of their starting 5 today as Rasheed Wallace is probable due to a back injury, Ben Wallace might be out due to undisclosed reasons, and Richard Hamilton - the leading scorer for the Pistons might be out due to personal reasons as well. Thus, we have 3 key players that might be out for the Pistons and even if they did have all these players in, the last 6 games head to head for these teams have gone under. In fact, the under is 21-5 in their last 26 meetings and given these injuries, the under seems more probably as Billups might have to take a heavier roll as Hamilton could be out. The Pacers have been struggling on the road as they have lost several in a row including to the Knicks and the Hawks - 2 of the bottom rung teams in the league. Given the history of unders in this series and the fact that the Pacers under is 4-1 in their last 5 road games during their struggle, the under seems solid here. With the Pistons possibly missing some of their key starters, they'll focus on defense off their embarrasing loss last game to Orlando. Let's roll with history and the under.
