    Default Need input - 76ers vs. Pistons next game

    Guys, im really thinking to take Detroit at -9.5 for this one.

    Yes they've played sh*tty at the end of the season but they are a team that got tired of regular season and had nothing to play for. They were just really anticipating this time of year but 6ers have been proven a good team.

    Series is tied 2-2?

    I think pistons at home at -9.5 but any other opinion(s) would help.

    Thanks and GL TO ALL!!!!

    9.5 is an awful lot to give a team that defends well and rebounds well.

    Det may very well hold Phil in the 70s, but I think they may NEED to do so to cover.

    yea, ill take them and see what happens. Not confident about it but Pistons have been waiting for this. And might want to prove a point in a blow out like the Celtics will hopefully do tonight.

    I've seen the "prove a point" phrase thrown around a bit here and I don't understand it. I don't understand what "point" a big favorite that everyone expects to win is going to "prove".

    Personally, I'd be more afraid of the rust factor with Det & Bos since neither has needed a win since February-ish.....but then again my opinion ain't worth shit.

    Yes, the Pistons will win but will it be by 9, 10, 11 or more points....it's going to be right there. I suggest taking them in the first half. I see that being a little safer.
    Good luck

    I think Phil will try to ush it. I also think Detroit will get fast break points off of turnovers. I like the over in this one.

    NOW, Detroit has a "point to prove" in game 2 - mainly that they don't suck.
