I'm thinking Detroit continues it's great form and wins in Joizy.
Kidd's knee can't be getting any better carrying around the weight of his team and Billups pounding. Detroit has it all covered as far as the offensive weapons of NJ. NJ has no consistant outside offensive presence, their shots are blocked when they attempt to drive, their transition game isn't scaring anyone on Detroit, and they will rain three's no matter how many they miss in a game while losing continuously on the boards. They have become an easier team for Detroit to control and I think they took their best swing and missed. Detroit's problem in the past was of the offensive variety. That all changed when they picked up a guy who has no problem bringing an aggression to the offense when things get bogged down. Last game the other Wallace even got into the offensive picture. Prince was a non-factor and it could be said had an aweful game at both ends of the floor and Detroit still smoked em. NJ can't go half court either because of the inside advantage of Detroit. NJ hasn't played well at home all year against good defensive teams.
Detroit is 95-22 SU when holding their opponents to under 87 points.
NJ is 7-23 SU when they score less than 87 points in a game.
NJ av 93 at home during the season while shooting 45.5%. They have av 87 while shooting 43.5% during the playoffs, this includes the games against the deadly Knick's defense. Detroit allowed 85 on the road at a 42% clip during the season. In the entire playoffs, they are allowing 80 points at a 40% clip. I don't see NJ scoring 87 points tonight against this Detroit team. Whatever worked offensively for that spurt in game two, Brown will have adjusted for, tightening that noose and getting me closer to one of my series W's.

Looks like I was a day early in betting against the Cubs as it looks like they will drop the last two of the series after winning the 1st game. (I spoke too soon LOL)
Looks like my Sox got back down to reality. Word to the wise: Loaiza doesn't have the same stuff he had last year. They have been talking about him on local radio over his last few starts. Even in his wins, he wasn't looking good.
