Written By David Hess (Follow me on Twitter @DavidHess311)
When: 8:30 PM ET, Thursday, October 19, 2015
Where: Palace at Auburn Hills in Auburn Hills, Michigan
Televised: Locally
Odds: Line opened with Chicago favored at -4, but has been bet down a little to -2.5. The OU line currently stands at 199.
The Chicago Bulls have a new coach, a new offense and the have high hopes with a healthy squad. Well they are off to a good start so far with a nice two point home win over Cleveland and then they went out on the road and beat up Brooklyn by a score of 115-100. That is the type of game that Chicago is looking to play this year. They want an uptempo game with plenty of points being scored, rather than the slow grind it out type of games that we have seen from them in the past. Jimmy butler was a huge part of the Bulls success last year and he leads the team in scoring so far with 20.5 ppg, while a healthy Derrick Rose has put up 16.5 ppg in the early going.
The Detroit Pistons also check into this game at 2-0 on the young season as they have beaten Atlanta on the road 106-94 and then took out Utah at home by a score of 92-87. The Pistons are another team that has high hopes this year as they have a young talented roster that is just loaded with potential. Pope, Jackson and Drummond all appear ready for a big year. They have already shown they are for real with the 12 point road win over Atlanta to start the year. This is a team to watch of for this year.

[709] Detroit/ Chicago Over 199
I have to go with the Over in this game. Chicago wants to play an uptempo game and that just what they got when they faced Brooklyn on the road. That is the type of game that Hoiberg wants this year. Detroit also want to push tempo with their young athletic team and they were able to in their opener vs Atlanta. In their second game they took on a Utah team that likes the low pace and so the game was low scoring. This one won’t be as both teams will push the pace and give us a game over 200 points.
