The Pistons are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 road games and 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games overall. The Rockets are 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 home games and 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games overall. The under is 19-7 in Pistons last 26 overall. The over is 4-1 in Rockets last 5 overall. The Pistons are 7-0 ATS in the last 7 meetings in Houston and 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings.
The Houston Rockets are the more talented team, and being at home doesn't hurt. However, neither of these teams are trying to win at this stage as it's all about the ping pong balls. You may not want to back the Pistons, but the Rockets are losing their last 5 games by an average of 18 points while allowing 54.5 percent shooting. This is a brutal, brutal game where neither team wants a W. It's the points or pass for me.
