Pistons vs Magic Pickswise Expert Predictions

Point Spread Pick
DET Pistons -2.5(-110)

Just like in the Knicks vs Hawks series, the higher-seeded team lost Game 3 to fall into a 2-1 hole only to be favored by more in Game 4 than it was in its previous loss. The oddsmakers are just begging you to take the underdogs at an inflated price. Hopefully you didn’t fall for it in the Hawks’ case, as they got blown out as +2.5 underdogs by the visiting Knicks. And you shouldn’t fall for it in the Magic’s case, either, as they are the far inferior team despite currently holding the upper hand in this best-of-7 showdown. I’m rolling with the favorites to restore order to the proceedings, so my Pistons vs Magic pick is Detroit -2.5.

It’s hard to see Orlando shooting 11 percentage points better than Detroit from 3-point range like it did on Saturday. Similarly, the Magic — even at home — probably won’t attempt 9 more free-throws than the Pistons. Detroit is by no means an elite 3-point shooting team, but it is far better from downtown than its 30.0 percent effort from downtown so far in this series. The Pistons also attempted the third-most free-throws in the NBA during the regular season, so count on them matching the Magic’s aggressiveness on Monday. There is also no reason to think that Jalen Duren will remain in this slumber (9.0 ppg, 8.3 rpg in this series) for long. This is a guy who averaged 19.5 ppg and 10.5 rpg during the regular season. In 4 meetings with Orlando, Duren averaged 17.8 ppg and 11.0 rpg — so it’s not like this is some kind of matchup issue for Detroit’s star big man. Give me the visitors in Game 4.

Pistons vs Magic Game 4 prediction: Detroit -2.5 (-110) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.
