NBA bets- Keep the Streak Alive!

Friday night's picks:

Detroit -3.5 at Boston. Detroit didn't win on the road the entire preseason, but I can counteract that with another meaningless stat: So far this season, Darko is averaging 11 pts, 11 rebounds, 5 blocks, and 5 steals per 48 minutes! Why is he ever on the bench?! Al Jefferson is solid, but other than that, the Pistons' 2nd team has a major edge over the Celtics. That will be a big factor at the end 3rd period/start of the 4th, during which Detroit will build a double-digit lead. This should put Paul Pierce into pout mode thereby rendering a comeback implausible.

LA Clippers vs Atlanta OVER 198.5. Young teams like the Hawks hate to play defense for 48 minutes. Old gunners like Sam Cassell and Cuttino Mobley love to take shots for 48 minutes. This should be a replay of the Hawks/Warriors game from Wed night.

Washington at New York UNDER 199.5 I can't visualize the Knicks being a 100 pt/game team. It's just not part of their identity. They did reach the century mark in their first game, but it took overtime to get there. This just has the feel of a 89-85 game to me.
