Detroit vs Philadelphia Prediction: the Only Pistons' Trophy is Golden Raspberry

Prediction for the NBA match between Detroit vs Philadelphia, which will take place on December 14th. The Pistons are much closer to the record for the longest losing streak. Currently, Monty Williams' team has failed 20 consecutive games, which means that if they lose seven more in a row, they will go down in history. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Detroit

Recall that the NBA's anti-record for the longest losing streak is 26 games. Philadelphia just set it in the 2013-14 season, and Cleveland two seasons earlier. Detroit is fast approaching that mark. Judging by how Monty Williams' team plays in this championship, 20 straight losses is far from the limit.

The Pistons suffered their twentieth defeat in a home game against Indiana. The Pacers had their first game after a tough preseason tournament, but that didn't stop them from outscoring Detroit by more than 130 points - 123-131.

Philadelphia

If Detroit is the underdog in the East, Philadelphia is one of the top favorites in the conference. Competing with Boston this season will be difficult, but if anyone can stop the Celtics, it's the 76ers. Nick Nurse's team currently has 15 wins in 22 games. Milwaukee and Orlando have only one more victory, and Boston has two more.

The last meeting, the 76ers held at home with another East outsider, Washington, and confidently outplayed them - 146-101. This is their third win in a row.

Expert Betting Tips

Detroit is a weak team, and moreover, Jalen Duren - the only one who could stop Joel Embiid - will not be on the court. So, Philadelphia's center will have complete freedom and will surely break his season norm of 34.8 points per game.
