Lets Win Some Money Tonight! Pistons +7
Ok, here's the deal. I'm backing the Pistons tonight +7. I've been thinking about this game since the line came out. It's obvious the "sexy" pick is the Magic. Why not, right? The magic are rollin right now and taking no prisoners and Dwight Howard is a beast. Yea, their a good team and will contend for the title once again this year, but listen, I'm a long time Piston fan and the history between these two teams is simple. The Pistons OWN the Magic. Go back as many years as you want and you will see . The pistons usually always beat the Magic. And now you wanna give me points w/ the pistons at home against the magic?? Ok, it is true rip hamilton is out for 2 games, sheed and billups are long gone, but the Magic do not play well at the palace of Auburn Hills or even at home when the play the Pistons . And even at Ben Wallace old age he looks like his former self so far up to this point and he should be able to play some good D on Dwight. Detroit is coming off 2 straight losses to OKC and the bucks. Now they go home and i believe will play well enough to cover the spread or possibly win straight up but I'm taking the 7.There is a lot of good young talent in the D and I think this is a good spot for the Pistons.

I'm going to that game.
You really think the Pistons can cover? I'd like to bet it -- but am afraid Orlando will blow them out.Comment -
You don't think Magic can score 87 points or more? I don't think Pistons crack 80 tonight.Comment -
dmtrader, your going to the game? Cool, have fun. I really do think the pistons can cover this one and Yes it is possible the magic could blow em out but i really do like the pistons in this particular spot. It ain't a "lock" i've learned my lesson about that. Have fun at the game and drink 1 for me.Comment -
who is gonna score for pistons?? ben gordon?? prince? pistons will be lucky to break .500 this year...magic roll by 10-15Comment -
I'm not good with totals so i really couldn't tell you. If I had to guess i would say both teams will score in the 90's range but that is just a guessOriginally posted by pavyracerComment -
Ben gordon and Rodney stuckey will get the majority of the points. Maybe throw villa into the mix as wellOriginally posted by ipickwinnersComment -
Pistons don't have a chance. I saw orlando play in NJ last week and they are sick. You can't stop dwight howard.Comment -
anthony, your right about howard. you can't stop him. But you can contain him and keep the damage to a minimum.Comment -
Seems there is no chance for the Pistons tonight....took some +8 and under myself.Comment -
You can get Pistons +8.5 now.Comment -
just heard tayshuan prince is out....if this is true....my -6.5 that i got earlier in the day is a gift....wow...no way in hell pistons winComment -
wow, line is at 8 1/2 nowComment -
line opened at -5 1/2
looks like a lot of public money rollin in on the magicComment -
I haven't saw that on Prince?Comment -
64% to 36% according to sbrodds.
Some of you better hope lang ain't backing the magic 2nite though - that would be an automatic deathwish 4 u magic bettorsComment -
Lang is on the Magic....78% according to SI.Comment -
hamilton and prince being out is pushing this number....and the fact that jj reddick just had a career night with replacing carter
and lang is on magic and mavericks....both teams i bet on earlier today....debating about betting either side and just losing the vig right now lolComment -
Thanks 4 that diogee. You just made me feel so much better now that i know lang is on the magic. i figured his punk ass would be. The lang curse is alive and real. watch out magicComment -
might be a good idea, i'm just sayin.Originally posted by ipickwinnersComment -
i think one of the surest bets in all sports is when big players are out their team covers or wins outright
watch the info on the laker game tonite if its announced that kobes out and the line goes down- play the lakers
not saying hammer any of these games just an observation i've seen again and again over about 30 yearsComment -
I took it at Orlando (-6)Comment -
i would have 2 agree w/ that, been there done thatOriginally posted by CrayzeeComment -
i grabbed some extra action on the pistons +8 1/2 just in case
I will be loggin off now headed out till halftime
GL to pistons. yes sir!!!!Comment -
i noticed this again and again the last 1 year. good to know it wasn't a flukey year.Originally posted by CrayzeeComment -
orlando has never been favored by anything like 8.5 in detroit. they look good this year so far, but detroit was able to rise up against them last year when they were shittier than they've been in years. you can't deny the history, i like detroit +8.5 as well.Comment -
i like orlandoComment -
THIS MIGHT BE THE WORST PICK OF THE YEAR DUDE! MAGIC ALL THE WAY! PISTONS GET BLOWN OUT BY 15+ !!!
Comment -
Heard Prince is out back spasm..GL on your bet
Comment -

Congrats Smoke. See it time and time again...one of the better players on the team is out and they have no chance.Comment -
i am in complete and utter shock...congrats, u called it. i am so mad because i forgot to check who lang was on....he is on magic and mavericks today, and magic lost and lookslike mavericks will lose as well, damnitComment -
