Clippers at Pistons Key Matchup

Detroit Pistons vs. Los Angeles Clippers The key matchup in this game will be in the frontcourt, where Detroit’s Isaiah Stewart will be tasked with guarding Los Angeles’ Kawhi Leonard. Stewart is a physical defender who is known for his toughness, but Leonard is one of the most skilled scorers in the NBA. He will need to be at his best to slow down Leonard and help the Pistons pull off the upset.

Clippers at Pistons Predictions

The Clippers are the clear favorites in this game, and for good reason. They are one of the best teams in the NBA, and they have a ton of experience. The Pistons, on the other hand, are one of the worst teams in the league, and they have a lot of young players. That being said, the Pistons have shown some signs of improvement lately, and they are playing at home. If they can get off to a good start and build a lead, they could make things interesting. However, the Clippers are just too good of a team to bet against, so I would recommend taking them to cover the spread.

Pickswise takes: Clippers -16.5, Over 236.5
