Detroit Pistons vs Golden State Warriors Prediction: Will Steve Kerr's team play better against Detroit?

Golden State lost for the second time in the season - away to Cleveland. Will Steve Kerr's team play better against Detroit? The Pistons have lost four straight, so a win for the Warriors is likely.

Detroit Pistons

The Pistons met with Phoenix, and this game showed that it was too early for the team to solve tournament problems. Cade Cunningham scored 26 points but didn't hit 0-of-6 from long range. Jalen Duren had 11 rebounds but only scored 11 points. Rookie Marcus Sasser had a great game - 22 points on 9-of-16 shooting, but this young player won't be able to maintain such a high level for several games consistently. It was 106:120, Detroit's fourth straight loss. In all games during this stretch, the Pistons have lost by at least 9 points.

Golden State Warriors

The Warriors came into the matchup with Cleveland with a streak of five straight wins, but they couldn't handle the Cavs, playing perhaps their worst game of the season. The team realized only 36.2% of their shots - 104:115. Chris Paul had only two assists, and Andrew Wiggins scored only 8 points. Steph Curry was very good again, though - 7 of 11 from beyond the three-point arc and 28 points for scoring. Draymond Green had 18 points and eight assists. With a 5-2 record, Golden State is third in the Western Conference.

Expect Betting Tips

Golden State lost to Cleveland largely due to poor execution of attempts from the game. Otherwise, the team performed well.

Moreover, the Pistons will likely be one of the main underdogs again in this championship. We bet on Golden State and their individual total over.
