The current betting odds have the Pistons listed as a 3 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Pistons have been terrible this year with their 14-42 record overall and they haven't been any better in their home games either as they are only 7-21 in their home games, but despite being one of the worst teams in the NBA this season, they are going to be at home here against another team that has been just as bad this season. The Spurs have also been terrible this year with their 14-41 record overall making them one of the worst teams in the league just like the Pistons. The Spurs have also been terrible in their road games as they are 5-20 in those and they have lost 10 games in a row entering this one in a very bad slump right now. The Pistons have only lost 3 games in a row entering this one and they have been a lot better in their home games, especially against these other bad teams. The best way to place a bet here is on the Pistons to cover the spread in this game.

“When you turn it over against Toronto, it’s like a bucket at the other end with their speed and their athleticism. They got too many points off our turnovers, but that’s how they play. That’s one of their strengths.” - Gregg Popovich after his team’s loss against the Raptors in their game on Wednesday.

“These type of games are butt-kicking contests because they play physical offense. It was a great game for us to feel, to taste, to go up against a hard-nosed, physical playoff team.” - Dwane Casey after his team’s loss against the Cavaliers in their game on Wednesday.
