Phoenix looks really good early on. The additions they made in the offseason have enhanced what we saw in the bubble over the summer.
Detroit has not looked good. My concerns over their roster construction have so far born out. I am not seeing much changing over the course of the season either.
Phoenix should roll right through Detroit. If so it will be a testament to where they are at, winning the game they are supposed to with ease.
Phoenix Suns
The Suns have been playing good ball and are off a very solid win over the Toronto Raptors, the best 1-5 team in the history of the league.
In the win the Suns were insane shooting from deep. They made 21 of 40 from deep and it wasn’t’ even mostly Devin Booker.
Chris Paul has been a really good addition for this team. More than anything he seems to give them confidence out there. His overall numbers are good but not eye-popping.
The same goes for Booker. His numbers are actually down but in the big moments, he can still be lethal.
Paul is a Hall of Famer in waiting so his presence can’t be understated but I also think the Suns deserve credit for deepening their team. They come of the bench with youth, defensive intensity and enough shooting.
Phoenix looks really good and they are even doing it without top draft pick Jalen Smith. In fact, the way they are playing now there might not be a role for him.
It is early but there are lots of reasons to be excited in the valley of the sun.
Detroit Pistons
This is going to be an ugly season for the Pistons. Not only are they losing but top pick Killian Hayes is out indefinitely.
The only thing that appears to be going right has been the acquisition of Jerami Grant. He is leading the team in scoring at 24ppg. Also brought it was Mason Plumlee. He is leading the team in rebounding.
For the team to win with any regularity they are going to need a lot from Derrick Rose and Blake Griffin. Rose is questionable for this one (surprise) while Griffin is just dramatically underproducing, just 14ppg with 4rpg. Ugh. Hard to trade that.
Dwayne Casey is a defense-first coach so it must be killing him that the Pistons are near the bottom of the league there. That can’t be a surprise though. They do not have anyone who is really good on that side of the ball.

Free Phoenix Suns vs. Detroit Pistons NBA Prediction:
The Suns got a nice win over Toronto their last time out. This is a longer travel spot coming from home but they should have no trouble with the Pistons.
This is a great indicator game. Even if they don’t play great they have to win the games they are supposed to if they want to keep up with teams in the Western Conference.
4* Free NBA Betting Pick: Suns -6.5
This is actually pretty good value. Detroit has just one win and only one other game that finished closer than this projected margin.
