winning points
Detroit over Indiana* by 4
A greater Pistonian presence in the paint than they had
in Game 1 figures to take place in this one.
Also, the refs did their ''let's get one for the home team''
routine in Game 1, as the Pistons' big players were in foul
trouble early. That is unlikely to happen once again, because
fans who aren't from Detroit or Indiana will turn it
off faster than you can say Mehmet Okur if they're not
watching the starters.
ANAHEIM (Lackey) +110 over TORONTO (J. Miller)
John Lackey has had his ups and downs, but he was
effective in a loss to the Yankees last week, and we like
the visitor's chances of staying hot. Anaheim has the best
record in baseball (29-15), including a 20-11 (+$930) mark
against righthanders, with 5.6 runs per game in those contests.
The Blue Jays are terrible at Skydome, with a 5-9 (-$515)
record at home vs. righties. On a day with little to choose from,
this game is by far the best value.
