The New York Knicks looked great to start the season but things haven’t come so easily as of late. New York is in the midst of a four-game slide and will be attempting to right the ship Tuesday against the Detroit Pistons.
- The Knicks are 1-5 ATS in their last six games as home underdogs.
- The Pistons are 7-1 SU and ATS in their last eight games as favorites.
- The Knicks are 0-4 SU and 1-3 ATS in their last four games.
The Pistons took three of the four meetings with New York last season, and if recent history can tell us anything, it’s that home court advantage is nearly meaningless when these teams collide. In the last four meetings between the Pistons and Knicks, road sides are a perfect 4-0 SU.
The 2015-16 campaign has been a coming out party of sorts for Pistons big man Andre Drummond, and he certainly can’t be faulted for Detroit’s recent poor play. The Pistons have dropped their previous two games despite getting consecutive 20-plus points effort from Drummond.
