Tuesday’s Best NBA Bets: Pistons vs. Knicks
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Pistons vs. Knicks
The Detroit Pistons weren’t “robbed” of a win against the New York Knicks in Game 4. However, the final play of the game was likely a foul, and the Pistons should’ve been at the foul line to take the lead in the final seconds.
That said, this series has been extremely physical, and many fouls weren’t called, especially in Game 4. We’ve got to cut the refs some slack. They don’t have instant replay, slow-motion replays or still shots when making a live call.
With that out of the way, there’s no way the Pistons fold after Game 4. The Pistons lost two consecutive games by one possession and will be just as physical in Game 5, even in front of the Knicks’ home crowd. The defense held New York to just 37.4% from the field in Game 4, and only a couple of circus shots from Karl-Anthony Towns helped save the Knicks in that game.
I’ll take the Pistons and the points.
Pick: Pistons +5.5 (-108)
