    Pistons opened at -4 already to -5???

    Like this play as my best bet of the day, but don't know what to make of the line movement. Your thoughts??

    Why are you so surprised? Pistons are a popular play tonight.

    I figured it must be because the general public is on it. Seems like an easy bet, but those are the one's that always scare me the most.

    Yup, nothing unusual bud. 89% of the public is on the Pistons spread, and 71% of the public is actually on the ML according to VegasInsider. It's the #1 most played wager tonight in all 3 of the major sports. In my opinion, it should even be a little higher than -5 by now from all the action.

    i am doing sixers+190
    they are not bad, they can beat pistons at any time
    pistons are better, but this line is too big. will pistons really win 2 of every 3 at philly?
    i dont agree.

    im taking ml

    Pistons have the added motivation of regaining home court though ryan.

    You have to give Philly credit though, win or loss. These kids are showing great heart to contend against a very good team in the Pistons, when everyone counted them out, and thought they'd get swept in 4. As of right now, it honestly looks like they want it more than Detroit.

    Wow what a joke...this team can't make a phucking shot to save their lives. Looks like this sloppy play absolutely phucks my overs.

    i try to tell everyone that detroit isnt good
    philly is no worse than detroit 2nd half of the year
    no worse

    now, i am not bragging, just saying the pistons are not good. like dallas or denver

    I agree Ryan but there is no way that I expected 28 turnovers in the first 3 quarters between the 2 teams or I obviously would not have taken the over.
