The Pistons have lost three of their last four and have failed to cover in all four. The Nuggets have won six straight. Over the past five games, the Nuggets are shooting 50 percent and the Pistons are shooting just 41 percent. Look for the Nuggets to roll Monday.
The Nuggets are just 10-15 ATS on the road and will face a motivated Pistons side eager to atone for a devastating collapse against the Clippers. Grab the points as this one goes down to the wire.
Denver is most definitely the better offensive team in this matchup, but both of these teams have proven to be above average on defense this season. Furthermore, the Under has gone 7-1 in Detroit's last eight, 19-12-2 when the Pistons are playing on a day of rest this season, and 12-6-1 in games against Western Conference foes. For the Nuggets, the Under is 8-4-1 this season when they're favored on the road, and 15-9-1 on the road overall. And, finally, the Under is 7-1 in the last eight meetings between these two teams.
The Nuggets have been battling injuries of late, but that hasn’t stopped them from winning six straight. Three of those victories came on the road, where they are now 14-11 for the season. The Pistons are only 11-16 ATS at home and almost lost there last week to a Mavericks team that was extremely shorthanded after their trade with the Knicks. Even with Gary Harris (groin) out and Jamal Murray (ankle) questionable, I’ll take the Nuggets to cover.
