Analysis
The Pistons are coming into this game with a 48-18 record this season. They hit a little snag recently with a 4 game losing streak, but they bounced back from that and have been playing much better recently. They have won their last 3 straight games and they have been dominant in these with all 3 wins coming by 10+ points. Their offense has been on fire as they have scored 125+ points in each of their last 3 games, scoring 130+ points in 2 of those, and their defense has also been much better as they have held opponents to 110 points or less in each of their last 3 games as well. They have lost their last 3 straight games on the road, but they are 22-10 on the road this season and now they have been heating up again. They are going up against a Raptors team that is 37-29 this season. They are coming off of a 122-115 win at home against the Suns in their last game, but they have not been playing well recently as they have lost 2 of their last 3 as well as 4 of their last 6 games. Their offense has been struggling more in these games as well, scoring 111 points or less in 2 of their last 3 as well as 4 of their last 6 games. The Raptors finally picked up a win in their last game against a team with a winning record, but they have still lost 9 of their last 10 games against teams with winning records and have struggled against better teams in the league all year. They have actually been worse at home this season as well and they have lost 4 of their last 6 games there. The Pistons also won the only meeting with the Raptors this season in Toronto 113-95. The Pistons will cover the spread in this game.
