Detroit is playing the second game of a back-to-back situation and overall they are just plain bad when it comes to playing away from Detroit. The Pistons have been hit by injuries and people waiting to be traded which affects their depth, especially in back-to-back situations. New York has been playing well this season and is at home against a Pistons team that is struggling in all areas of their game. New York comes away with a win over a tired and depleted New York Knick team.

Play on New York.
