Pistons face elimination at home
The Detroit Pistons have dropped two in a row to Miami and face being eliminated Wednesday when they host the Heat in Game 5 in the Motor City.
Detroit were also down 3-2 last season to Miami, but the Heat have learned from that experience and will not let up in trying to finish off the Pistons.
The Pistons are favored, opening as 6-point chalk, with an opening total of 182. Oddsmakers expect a ton of offense, as the total opened high at 214.
Last time out, at AmericanAirlines Arena against Detroit, the Heat as underdogs defeated the Pistons 89-78. The game was an under play.
Dwyane Wade has been the clear leader for Miami, averaging 30 points per game and shooting nearly 70 percent from the field.
