Pacers vs Pistons Prediction

This is a great spot for the Pacers with a westward road trip coming up. The Detroit Pistons have also been much more competitive than their record suggests. That said, the Pacers have an offense that the Pistons can’t keep up with, and Indiana rocked Detroit by 14 points a month ago. The Pistons have scored 101 points or fewer in each of their last three games, and that simply won’t be enough against this Pacers team. I’ll split the points with the Pacers in what should be a blowout road win.
