New York is on a 6-2 SU/5-3 ATS run, winning straight-up twice as a dog. New York posted an impressive 102-93 victory over Boston the last game as center Kristaps Porzingis came back from a knee injury, while Enes Kanter had 14 points, 10 rebounds for his sixth double-double in 11 contests. The Knicks are seventh in the NBA in field goal shooting (.471) on offense, while the much improved defense is fourth in field goals allowed. New York is 21-7 ATS after having won three of four games and they face a Detroit team on a 4-8 SU/4-7-1 ATS run, off a 110-93 loss at Dallas. They are home after playing seven of the last 11 away. The Pistons are #21 in the NBA in scoring and shooting on offense, while the defense is #25 in field goals and three-point shooting allowed. The Pistons are 2-8 ATS against the NBA Atlantic division, so back the improved dog that is playing much better. Grab the points on New York.
