Pistons vs. Nets Game Info
Detroit Pistons (10-27, 4-17 Away) vs. Brooklyn Nets (25-13, 14-6 Home)
Date: Saturday, March 13, 2021
Time: 7 p.m. EST
Venue: Barclays Center — Brooklyn, NY
Coverage: NBATV
The Pistons started the season as one of the worst teams in the league. Following injuries and the release of Blake Griffin, they have gotten even worse. They have lost eight of their past 10 games, and most of the matchups were against teams with losing records. Detroit recently traded for young guard Hamidou Diallo, but he will not be ready to be active yet tonight. Leading the way for the Pistons will be Jerami Grant, who scored a game-high 32 points in his last game.
The Nets have won 11 of their last 12 games. In other words, they have won more games in their last 12 outings than the Pistons have all season long. Kevin Durant is still out and Blake Griffin will not be making his Nets debut against his former team. Still, that shouldn’t matter in this matchup. The Nets are heavy favorites, and rightfully so. Kyrie Irving and James Harden are gelling and playing top notch basketball.

Those interested in betting the total over will find the best value at William Hill in the form of an over 226 (-110) ticket.

Pistons vs. Nets Prediction
This game doesn’t have much business being close. The Nets are 11-1 against the spread in their last 12 games. They’ll obviously win straight up, but an 11-point spread feels too close for them to not cover as well. Of their last five wins, the closest differential was 11 points. This shows that they’re doing more than just getting by.
Prediction: Nets -11
