Prediction

Pistons 115, Cavaliers 112

Moneyline (ML)

The Pistons (-286) are heavily favored vs. the Cavaliers (+225), but it’s buyer beware. These teams just met at LCA Jan. 9, and the Pistons were favored by 7.5 points and lost outright to the Cavs 115-112 in overtime. AVOID.

Line/Against the Spread (ATS)

The CAVALIERS (+7.5, -129) are worth a small-unit bet based upon the two most recent meetings, which saw Cleveland cover in both outings. Overall the Pistons (-7.5, +105) are 2-1 SU/1-2 ATS in three meetings this season.

Neither of these teams are very good against the number, as Detroit is 2-10 ATS in the past 12 at home, and 1-4 ATS in the past five as a favorite. Cleveland is 2-5 ATS in the past seven overall, but is a solid 4-0 ATS in the past four on the road against teams with a losing home record, and 16-7-1 ATS in the past 24 against teams with a winning percentage under .400.

Over/Under (O/U)

The OVER 219.5 (-121) is your best bet, cashing in all three meetings this season, and each of the past six meetings overall between these rivals. The Over is 10-3 in Cleveland’s past 13 overall, and 12-5 in the past 17 on the road, while the Over is 6-1 in Detroit’s past seven overall and 6-0 in the past six against teams with a losing overall record.

Prediction

Pistons 113, Cavaliers 109

Moneyline (ML)

The Pistons (-294) are just too expensive in the second end of this home-and-home. It wouldn’t be advised to risk three times your investment on any team, let alone lowly Detroit Basketball. AVOID.

Line/Against the Spread (ATS)

The CAVALIERS (+7.5, -121) are catching nearly four buckets from the Pistons (-7.5, +100). The Pistons defeated the Cavs 115-113 at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse Tuesday. The Cavaliers are 3-8 ATS in the past 11 games on the road, so you’d be going against the grain a little here. They’re also just 1-4 ATS in the past five overall.

However, the Pistons are 3-9 ATS in the past 12 games overall, while going 1-5 ATS in the past six games overall. They should pull out a win against their Lake Erie rivals, but they won’t win by more than four buckets.

Over/Under (O/U)

The OVER 221.5 (-106) is worth a small-unit play, as the total has inched over the line in each of the past five meetings. The Over is also 4-0 in the past four for Cleveland, and 8-3 in its last 11 away from home.

For the Pistons, it’s been all about the Over lately, too. The Over is 7-0 in their past seven as a favorite, 5-1 in the past six at home and 7-2 in the previous nine games overall, too.

NBA odds courtesy of BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports for a full set of today’s betting odds. Odds last updated at 8;10 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Pistons 114, Cavaliers 107

Moneyline (ML)

The PISTONS (-167) are banged up, but the Cavaliers (+135) are a mess. Pick your poison. Cavs PF Kevin Love is reportedly frustrated with the play of the young players around him, and was visibly upset with SG Collin Sexton last time out. That type of non-unity isn’t going to cut the mustard.

New to sports betting? Every $1.67 wagered on the Pistons ML will profit $1 if they win.

Line/Against the Spread (ATS)

The PISTONS (-3.5, -106) are worth a roll of the dice. They’re not that much better in the win-loss column than the Cavaliers (+3.5, -1115). The Pistons are 4-1 ATS in the past five as a favorite, and they’re 5-2 ATS in the past seven against teams with a winning percentage under .400, too.

Cleveland has earned its old pre-LeBron nickname – the Cadavers – back. The Cavs are 5-11-1 ATS in the past 17 at home, and 0-4 ATS in the past four overall.

Over/Under (O/U)

The OVER 214.5 (-115) is attractive. The Over has hit in six of the Pistons’ past eight, and is a perfect 6-0 in their past six as a favorite. For the Cavaliers, the Over has connected in five of the previous seven, and seven of the past 10 as a ‘dog.

NBA odds courtesy of BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports for a full set of today’s betting odds. Odds last updated at 8:20 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Cavaliers 105, Pistons 101

Moneyline (ML)

The CAVALIERS (+120) are a nice value at home as short dogs. Neither of these teams has been very hot lately, and the Pistons (-143) are a much bigger risk on the road, where they have been even worse.

New to sports betting? Every $1 wagered on a Cleveland win profits $1.20 if the Cavs prevail. (Ex: Bet $10 to win $12.00, $20 to win $24.00, $4.55 to win $10).

Line/Against the Spread (ATS)

Take the CAVALIERS (+2.5, –106) at home against the visiting Pistons (-2.5, -115). For whatever reason, Detroit has had a difficult time on the road against its Lake Erie rivals in Cleveland, going 1-6 against the spread in the past seven trips to C-Town. The home team is also 10-3 ATS in the previous 13 meetings in this series.

Over/Under (O/U)

The Over might be the trend if you look at past results in this series, but the UNDER 212.5 (+105) is the play lately for both teams. The Under is 4-0 in the past four road games for the Pistons, and 5-1 in the past six at home for the Cavaliers. The Under is also 5-2 in Detroit’s past seven against Eastern Conference opponents, while Cleveland has hit the Under in seven of its last 10 games within the conference.
