MONDAY NIGHT NBA NO-BRAINER
(NBA) Detroit vs. Utah,
Point Spread: -8.00 | -108.00 Utah (Home)
Result: Loss
This looks like a good spot to fade the Detroit Pistons who snapped a four-game slide with a 109-104 win as a 7-point underdog at LA Clippers on Saturday. Star forward Blake Griffin scored 44 points against his former team but I expect him and the rest of the Pistons to come out flat here. They'll face a red hot Utah team that has won five of its last six and each of its last three (by an average of 13 points).

The Jazz failed to cover the spread last time out but are 5-0-1 ATS in their last six games following a ATS loss and 6-2 ATS in their last eight home games vs. a team with a losing road record. Detroit is 1-6-1 ATS in its last eight games vs. a team with a winning straight up record and 0-4-1 ATS in its last five following a straight up win.

8* play on Utah Jazz.
