    Pistons vs. Rockets line, picks: Advanced computer NBA model releases selections for Wednesday matchup

    SportsLine's projection model generated selections for Wednesday's matchup between the Detroit Pistons and the Houston Rockets

    The Detroit Pistons visit the Houston Rockets in a battle between Cade Cunningham and Jalen Green at 7:30 p.m. ET on Wednesday. Houston is favored by three points, while the Over-Under is set at 210 (see up-to-date odds for every game this week on our NBA odds page). Before making any Pistons vs. Rockets picks, you NEED to check out the NBA predictions from the SportsLine Projection Model.

    The SportsLine Projection Model simulates every NBA game 10,000 times and has returned over $9,000 in profit on its top-rated NBA picks over the past three-plus seasons. The model enters Week 4 of the 2021-22 NBA season up over $500 on all top-rated NBA picks this season. It's also on a stunning 110-73 roll on top-rated NBA picks against the spread that dates back to last season. Anyone following it has seen HUGE returns.

    The model knows the Pistons have a path to offensive effectiveness in this matchup. Detroit is a top-10 team in creating free throw attempts, and Houston is the second-worst team in the NBA in defending two-point attempts, with opponents shooting 55.9 percent on shots inside the arc. The Pistons also create havoc defensively, forcing a turnover on 17.3 percent of defensive possessions. Houston currently ranks dead-last in the NBA in ball security, committing 19.8 turnovers per game in 2021-22.

    The model also knows the Rockets have the most proven top-tier player on the floor in Christian Wood. He is averaging 17.5 points and 11.8 rebounds per game this season and, dating back to last year, Wood is producing more than 20 points and 10 rebounds per contest. With Wood at the forefront and a talented roster filled with shot creation, the Rockets should be able to threaten the rim. In addition, Detroit's offense has scuffled mightily this season, ranking at the bottom of the league almost across the board.

    Now, it has set its sights on Pistons vs. Rockets. We can tell you the model is leaning over the total, and it also says one side of the spread hits in well over 50 percent of simulations! You ABSOLUTELY need to see it before locking in any NBA picks.

    Who wins Pistons vs. Rockets? And which side of the spread hits well over 50 percent of the time? ... Join SportsLine right now to find out which side of the Pistons vs. Rockets spread you should be all over Wednesday, all from the model on a roll on NBA picks!
