Pistons at 76ers picks and predictions

Prediction

76ers 122, Pistons 108

Moneyline

You can PASS on the moneyline in this game with the 76ers being heavily favored at home. Betting on Philadelphia to win straight up isn’t worth doing due to the minimal return you’ll receive if the 76ers do secure the win.

Against the spread

76ERS -11.5 (-110) is an enticing wager in this game with how well Philadelphia has played since G James Harden returned to the lineup. Meanwhile, the Pistons are on the 2nd leg of a back-to-back and were just beaten by 15 points by the Jazz on Tuesday.

The 76ers are 11-1 ATS in their last 12 home games and 6-1 ATS in their last 7 home games against a team with a losing road record. The Pistons are 1-7 ATS in the last 8 road meetings against the 76ers and 5-13 ATS in the last 18 meetings overall.

Over/Under

Even though the Pistons are shorthanded, OVER 224.5 (-110) seems like the ideal way to wager on the total. Detroit doesn’t have anyone that can slow down C Joel Embiid, who is averaging 34.1 points, 9.7 rebounds, and 4.7 assists on 54 percent shooting from the floor in his last 9 games.

The Over is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings between the Pistons and the 76ers when the game is in Philadelphia. Also, the Over is 8-1-1 in the last 10 meetings overall.

Detroit Pistons at Philadelphia 76ers odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Detroit Pistons at Philadelphia 76ers and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Detroit Pistons (23-58) play the Philadelphia 76ers (50-31) Sunday in their regular-season finales at the Wells Fargo Center with tip-off set for 7 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Pistons vs. 76ers odds and lines, and make our expert NBA picks, predictions and bets.

Following a 3-game win streak from March 31 to April 3, the Pistons have been crushed in back-to-back games by the Dallas Mavericks Wednesday (131-113) and the Milwaukee Bucks Friday (131-101).

Philly is 4-1 straight up (SU) in their last 5 games, but just 1-4 against the spread (ATS) with the latest being a 133-120 beatdown of the Indiana Pacers Saturday as 17-point favorites. The Sixers could win the Atlantic Divison with a win Sunday and a Boston Celtics loss in Memphis.

The Sixers are 2-1 SU versus the Pistons this season, but Detroit is 2-1 ATS and won the most recent meeting 102-94 March 31.

Pistons at 76ers odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

76ers 122, Pistons 112

Money line

PASS.

The 76ers (-750) are a much better team on paper and should crush the Pistons (+500).

However, the same was true when Detroit beat Philly outright as 10-point home underdogs at the end of March. Ultimately, no team in the NBA is a big enough lock to lay -750 on the ML.

Against the spread

LEAN PISTONS +12.5 (-110) because Detroit is 11-0 ATS in the last 11 road games and 11-8 ATS on the road versus teams with a winning record.

On the other hand, the 76ers -12.5 (-110) are just 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games, 4-10 ATS as double-digit favorites and 6-10 ATS at home versus teams with a losing record.

The reasons for the LEAN to the PISTONS +12.5 (-110) instead of a like are Detroit’s 1-6 ATS record in the last 7 visits to Philly and Cunningham’s questionable game status.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 226.5 (+100) because the total is 7-1-1 O/U in the last 8 Pistons-76ers meetings and their last meeting went Under by 29 points so my hunch is this game ping pongs back Over the total.

Furthermore, oddsmakers set Sunday’s Pistons-76ers total 4.5 points higher than the previous meeting despite it going way Under the total, which gives me more confidence in the Over.

Lastly, Philly’s defense is suspect and Detroit has played hard down the stretch even though the Pistons have been out of the postseason race since before the All-Star break. I could see Detroit doing its part to help cash an OVER 226.5 (+100) wager.
