The Detroit Pistons had a favorable matchup tonight against the Washington Wizards - Washington was playing their second game of a back-to-back and Detroit were 15-point favorites. You’d have a cashed ticket if you took Detroit’s spread tonight - they outmatched the Wizards throughout the entire game and beat them 123-103. Though my expectations continue to rise as this successful season continues, it’s nice that this team continues to meet them. It’s thoroughly enjoyable watching them grow out of the bottom of the NBA since last season.
The first five minutes of the game was rough - neither team was hitting shots and the game was tied 6-6.
