Moneyline
PASS.
There is no value on the Heat (-650) to beat a Pistons team that is 5-26 on the road this season.
Against the spread
BET HEAT -11.5 (-110).
The Pistons have failed to cover the spread in 5 of their last 8, including back-to-back games overall and 4 of their last 6 as double-digit underdogs. Miami is 9-1 ATS in its last 10 games, including 3-1 ATS in its last 4 at home. Against a struggling Detroit team, expect Miami to dominate Tuesday night.

BET UNDER 217.5 (-115).
The Pistons have hit the Over just once in their last 10 games and have hit the Under in 9 straight. They have scored 105 or fewer points in 3 consecutive games and have not scored more than 111 in 9 straight.
Miami has a 23-37 Over record this season and has hit the Under in 7 of its last 10 games, including 2 of its last 3 at home. It has scored 109 or fewer points in 5 of its last 9 games and has held opponents to 110 or fewer in 9 of its last 10.
