Command Analysis

Detroit Pistons

Current form
The Pistons confidently went along the distance of the regular championship and at some point approached the top-6 of the East. However, instability played a cruel joke on the team. Now J.B. Bickerstaff team is going through a difficult period, because three defeats in a row seriously hit the club position in the tournament table.
In their last games, Detroit lost to Orlando (113:121), Cleveland (91:110) and Indiana (119:133). The game with the Pacers was especially painful, in which the team tried to fight, but ultimately failed.
Detroit key players continue to be Cade Cunningham and Tobias Harris. They are the ones who determine the team offensive potential. The Pistons traditionally play more confidently at home, so the next match will be a great opportunity to get back on the winning track.
Disqualifications and injuries
The team approaches the confrontation with an optimal line-up.
Interesting facts for betting
The Pistons have 10 home wins this season.
Projected lineup: Harris - Thompson, Duren - Hardaway, Cunningham.

Dallas Mavericks

Current form
The Mavericks have finally managed to get out of the crisis caused by Luka Doncic injury. The Slovenian absence affected the team stability, and Jason Kidd had to rebuild the game. However, two wins in a row give hope for an improvement in the situation.
In the last match, Dallas beat Washington (130:108), and before that, it managed to cope with New Orleans (137:136). The match against the Pelicans was especially tense, with the outcome being decided in the final seconds.
The key figures in the attack are Kyrie Irving and Klay Thompson. They are the ones who are currently pulling the team forward, but it is still unclear how long they will be able to maintain a high level. The Mavericks have a difficult trip to Detroit ahead, where the opponent will be maximally motivated.
Disqualifications and injuries
Luka Doncic, Max Kleber, Derek Lively and Dwight Powell will miss the next game due to injuries.

1.70Tip and bets
A three-game losing streak is clearly putting pressure on Detroit. Bickerstaff team looked confident at the start of the season, but is now experiencing some difficulties. However, the upcoming meeting will be held at home, where the Pistons traditionally perform better.
Dallas has managed to win two games, but there are still some visible problems in their game. The absence of Luka Doncic makes the offense less variable, and the team defense leaves much to be desired. We expect Detroit to take advantage of the opponent instability and achieve victory.
