New York Knicks at Detroit Pistons Preview & Picks

New York are tipped to cover as they win on the road.

The Knicks enter this matchup rested and in good form, while the Pistons just lost as a double digit favourite last night and have concerns over a couple of key players.

  • New York Knicks are on an 8-game win streak
  • New York Knicks are 8-0-0 ATS in their last 8 games
  • New York Knicks are 3-1 in their last 4 games in Detroit
  • The Under has cashed in 3 of the previous 4 meetings

Head To Head

  • New York Knicks lead the all-time series 233-190
  • Detroit Pistons won 121-90 when the two teams last met on January 5

New York Knicks Form

New York head to Detroit on a fantastic run of form, having now won each of their previous eight games.

The Knicks experienced a rough run of form in the middle of January as they lost four consecutive games, but a 120-66 demolition of Brooklyn sparked a turnaround.

They followed up that victory with a 122-109 success in Philadelphia, before returning home to blow out Sacramento 103-87.

New York then followed up a 119-92 victory in Toronto with home successes against Portland, 127-97, and the Los Angeles Lakers, 112-100.

The Knicks crushed Washington 132-101 on the road for a seventh straight win, and then made it eight-in-a-row as they took down Denver at home in double overtime, 134-127.

Detroit Pistons Form

Detroit enter this game on the back of a defeat, but in solid form overall with nine wins in their last 12 games.

The Pistons began this sequence at home as they downed Phoenix 108-105, Indiana 121-78 and Boston 104-103, before heading out on the road to beat New Orleans 112-104.

That win streak was ended by a 111-104 loss at home to Houston, but they issued an immediate response in the form of a 139-116 win over Sacramento and a 109-107 success in Denver.

Detroit then answered a 114-96 defeat in Phoenix by beating Golden State 131-124, Brooklyn 130-77 and Denver 124-121.

The Pistons failed to make it four-in-a-row however, as they were beaten 126-117 by Washington last night.

Verdict

Last night’s home defeat to Washington was a rough one for Detroit, and the condition of Cunningham and Harris will be a concern after they went into that game ‘questionable’.

Therefore we have to side with a rested and in-form New York team that has a solid recent record in the ‘Motor City’.
