Detroit Pistons at Milwaukee Bucks Prediction
The Pistons undoubtedly turned the NBA upside down last night with their win at Toronto. Yet, much of the public believes this is a fluke from their initial reaction. The recent Milwaukee trouncing of Indiana on the road in Indy is likely the compelling and fueling narrative of this market. The Deers had their way with the Pacers and seemingly this catalyzes the response from the public to ignore Detroit’s recent accolade. As stated, the Pistons have had notorious troubles on the road but they dismissed that notion last night, winning in one of the most hostile environments in all of the league. In the most recent meeting in Milwaukee, it was the Pistons not the Bucks who picked up the W. Look for Detroit to show no fear and holster heightened enthusiasm as they enter this contest. Milwaukee should be on upset alert and be prepared for a fight.
Free Pick:
Take Detroit +3.5
