Free Sports Game Preview and Prediction: Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Detroit Pistons
Friday, February 03, 2017 7:30 PM
Play: Point Spread: -4.5/-110 Detroit Pistons
Free Pick on Pistons -
I'm jumping on Detroit as a short home favorite against the Timberwolves tonight. The Pistons played one of their better games in a while in a 118-98 home victory over the Pelicans and I look for them to carry over that momentum against Minnesota. Detroit also played well the previous game, losing by just 4-points in a cover at Boston. Minnesota on the other hand is off a 97-125 loss at Cleveland, where they got annihilated in the 2nd half. The Timberwolves have failed to cover in 5 of their last 6 and I think they struggle to show up here. After this road slate, Minnesota will enjoy a 6-game home stand.
It's also worth pointing out that the Pistons have won each of the last 3 meetings, including a 117-90 blowout win at Minnesota earlier this season (12/9). A big part of that success is that Drummond has been able to get the best of Towns. The Timberwolves are also just 7-16 on the road this season. Minnesota is also 6-17 ATS in their last 23 off a blowout loss by 20 or more points and the Pistons are 18-5 ATS in their last 23 home games with a total of 210 or more. Take Detroit!
