Washington at Detroit

Premium Pick

The Detroit Pistons are struggling to get over the top, and their recent play has this team eroding towards .500 as they are not just one game over. They have won just three of their last 10 games, and in their last five they have beaten only lowly Brooklyn. The Washington Wizards have trended as a team that plays soft vs. bad teams, and very good vs. respectable teams. It is amazing ho bad they have been vs. the NBA's worst teams, and how good they have been against reasonably good to elite teams. Washington is a pathetic 5-18 ATS vs. a team that was less than .450 when they played them, and a robust 14-7 ATS vs. teams that are .450 or better. Back Washington.
