Game Preview

Duren and Stewart are suspended following a fallout against the Charlotte Hornets, and these two big guys won’t be able to help the Pistons in this event. Though we are sure that the fans won’t hold any grudges against them for stepping up.

Up until the All-Star Weekend, the Pistons had three wins in a row and were playing tough basketball. In their last 20 contests, 15 ended with the TOTAL going UNDER.

The Knicks had subsequent wins and losses, though their schedule was tough, with road games against the Pistons, Celtics, and 76ers. They beat the latter two, yet in between lost to the Pacers 137-134 OT.

Mike Brown’s boys also play tough basketball, with 10 of the past 14 matches going UNDER. This is the Knicks’ mentality this season.

Pistons vs. Knicks Head to Head

The Knicks lead 2-0 this year, 121-90 and 118-80, both games at home.

  • TOTAL went UNDER in 15 of the Pistons’ last 20 games.
  • Pistons are 6-1 SU in the previous 7 games.
  • The TOTAL went UNDER in 10 of the Knicks’ last 14 games.
  • Knicks are 10-2 SU in the previous 12 events.

Pistons vs. Knicks Predictions

This one is an easy shot for the Knicks, who meet the conference leaders, but as stated earlier, shorthanded conference leaders. With the home-court edge, this should be enough for them to prevail.
