The Pistons are the Champs and played like Champs two nights ago in the Alamodome.
Current Odds:
Pistons +5 +190
Spurs -5 -230
My play: I split my bet between taking the points with Detroit and playing the money line. Setting me up for a strong win should the Champs repeat and an even save if they only cover the five.
This is not only a "value buy" but actually the play I'd like regardless at this time. Unless Jordan possesses Horry's body for a second time I believe Detroit wins.
Also, I think the lines are (incorrectly) based mostly on the 0-9 trend.
Trend players beware tonight.
Either way it's gonna be a great game.
