Detroit Pistons ML over Phoenix Suns (+195)'
So far the Suns'have failed'to live up to preseason expectations, mainly because of injuries. Bradley Beal hasn’t taken the floor yet'and'Devin Booker has been dealing with an ankle issue. Without that pair, there has been a sizable load on Kevin Durant's shoulders. Compounding problems is the fact that'Phoenix is'on the road and on the second night of a back-to-back situation. The Detroit Pistons' roster is much closer to full strength, so they have a legitimate chance to pull off the upset. The likes of Jalen Duren, Isaiah Stewart and Marvin Bagley III are a ll likely to cause issues for new Phoenix center Jusuf Nurkic. That size has helped the Pistons rank third league wide in rebounding percentage. Their ability to control the glass'also has them'11th in defensive rating. Against a fatigued opponent, look for the Pistons to win the rebounding battle – and the game, too.'
Golden State Warriors ML over Cleveland Cavaliers (+105)'
Stephen Curry is straight up the NBA MVP through 2 weeks. The former Davidson College star is putting up huge numbers, especially on the road — where he is averaging 34.3 points, 6 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game while shooting better than 61 percent from the field and 53 percent from the land of plenty. Speaking of the road, the Warriors are 4-0 in such situations so far this season. That streak should be able to continue at the expense of an opponent Golden State has defeated 10 straight times (with 7 covers during this stretch). The Dubs have won their last 8 trips to Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse. At just 2- 4 SU through the first 6 games, the Cleveland Cavaliers have underperformed up to this point. They are winless in 3 home games, so it’s fair to say that home-court “advantage” isn't any kind of advantage at all in this particular matchup. Give me Golden State.'
