Pistons vs 76ers Prediction
The 76ers are going to get the benefit of the doubt because they’ve become the popular public team with their additions. However, the value is with the Pistons and the free bucket, as you’re not going to get them as underdogs often with the way they win games and were just the best team in the East last season. LeBron is dealing with a back issue, and the 76ers are on the end of a back-to-back. You don’t want to see this Pistons defensive pressure after playing last night. The Pistons are 5-0 SU and 4-1 ATS in the last 5 games against the 76ers. Obviously a different team, but the Pistons can beat anybody night to night. Give me the bucket.
