    Pistons ML= Cinch

    Pistons losing two in a row at home?

    -530 is not the worse wager I've seen. Definitely worth betting a little bit on and adding in ML Parlays and so forth. Pistons ML is a rare "cinch" in my opinion with odds that are somewhat fair.

    Does anyone think the 76ers are a legitimate shot against an extremely focused veteran team like the Pistons?

    -530 sounds close to what the Pats were in the superbowl vs Giants... Just saying

    I'd say this has more of a chance to win then the Pats in the Superbowl. Only because the Pistons have home court advantage and a HUGE Experience edge.

    But thats a good point.. I just think this is a rare cinch wager..

    I think they will come out pissed and focused I betting them minus the points, they should win this by 12 or more.

    If this was any other team I wouldn't even mention this.. But the Pistons aren't just any other team.. 59 wins Good Coach,Solid personnel Tons of experience and IMO the most important aspect=MOTIVATION.

    Gyno I think Pistons win here most likely but I wouldn't be shocked if this goes 7 games.

    For me, either PHILY wins outright or gets completely blown out and no in between.

    I think PHILY already accomplished what they needed to do here and take 1 of these first 2 games. I can see PHILY being competitive in the 1H and then see the Pistons turn it up a gear and put them away in the 3rd quarter and win by something like 18+. DET is a solid experienced team. I think Sunday was a huge wake up call....they'll get it done IMO.

    Good luck....

    Frankly, I don't think Phiily has a shot to win outright. So if BB is right, that only leaves Pistons -10.

    PASS for me, but Pistons ML does look like easy money. The books are TELLING you Pistons will win by making them more than -400 for the series while down 0-1.

    Don't you think if Pistons were going to send a message it would have been in game 1. Pistons are now a smooth 0-5 in the last 5 playoff games. And now people are going to put money on them to cover 10+. The reason this line is so high is because bookies know people are going to go for Detroit because they are Detroit. Look how far off the line was off in game 1.

    All depends on how cocky Pistons still are. Most likely they will come out strong, so DET 1Q looks good. So does DET 1H.

    If it's close at the half, then double up on DET 3Q. Because in that case they will definitely mean business.

    Stay away from the full game spread, because they could easily go back to cocky once the game is in the bag.

    Game is a pass for me, but the 3Q bet -at halftime- is on the table.

    -700 ML Detroit, the only way you make money on that is if you bet a huge amount of money and still you are making not even close to the risk, Detroit has lost its last two home games to Philly, one in the regular season and then the game the other night. Too risk such amount of money to win nothing is stupid even if it ends up being a winner. Betting a couple thousand to win a couple hundred is never a good bet. Better off taking a side on the number because then you are at least getting paid for the risk if you pick the right side.

    I'm tempted to go the other way. Rasheed joking around with 76-ers with the game on the line, right before (as he knew) he would get the final shot of the game... Billups commenting that they would still win the series even if they would fall behind 0-2. Something not right mentally in Motown. They didn't take sixers serious in game 1. Sixers should smell blood.

    -530 was a great price nonetheless.

    -700 or more just about everywhere now

    Nicely done IMGV...I made a mistake and played on Phi +10 despite my write-up in the parlay contest for over 179 clearly pointed to a play on the Pistons....which in turn made me extremely frustrated at myself.

    Keep on winning bro.

    Thanks a lot bro.. It's been a pretty damn good last three weeks. Now I guess the losing streak is coming cause this never lasts... Wish I could be like you one day NBA sharp

    Just forget all about the losing streak and keep on winning. Not exactly an NBA sharp...I just study up and try to win more than I lose. I would probably call Iwinyourmoney the NBA sharp of the board.
