Detroit Pistons vs Oklahoma City Thunder Prediction
The Pistons have most of their rotation on the injury report and it’s why this line is what it is. A potential finals preview and we’re seeing a double-digit line. With that said, this will be the first time since April 2 of last year where the Pistons are a double-digit underdog. Almost a full year, folks. The Thunder played a competitive game last night against the Knicks and now have to get up for this one. Despite the wins, OKC is just 35-39-1 ATS on the season. Since January 4, the Thunder are 5-13 ATS as a double-digit favorite. We’re getting a lot of backups with the Pistons, but I’m grabbing the points with the road dog.
