T.M. Selection: Pistons (ATS)

I'm not predicting an outright win here or anything, but I do expect the hungry visiting side to sneak in under the radar and, at the very least, keep this one competitive until the final moments. Detroit is now 3-29 after its 129-127 win at home over the Raptors. The Rockets are ripe for the picking now after three straight losses. Houston has done well for bettors this season, but with the majority of the public money on the Rockets, I'm going to go contrarian here. Detroit probably won't win a second straight, but all signs point this one "coming down to the wire."

T.M. Prediction: 116-113 Houston.
