GS Warriors

The Warriors are playing their last games at home, but they still can't improve their record. Steve Kerr's team has only one win in four matches, over Orlando (121-115), and three losses - to Miami (102-114), Dallas (122-132) and Denver (127-130). Against the Nuggets, which came less than 24 hours before the Detroit game, the Warriors led by nearly 20 points in the fourth quarter but allowed their opponents to come back and gave up in the end.

Detroit

The Pistons set an NBA record for longest losing streak with their 28th straight loss. That streak was broken in a 129-127 home defeat to Toronto. However, after this milestone, Detroit failed twice in a row. First, without a chance against Houston - 113-136, then in overtime against Utah - 148-154 (134-134). All in all, the Pistons have only three wins in 34 games - by far the best record in this championship.

Expert Betting Tips

The Warriors can't find their balance. Steve Kerr's team has put together some great stretches but has also had some bad ones.

Considering the Warriors' defensive struggles, we will go with Detroit's total and individual scoring.
