The Los Angeles Clippers return with a strong three-game winning streak, their longest of the season, after a 119-103 victory against the Portland Trail Blazers. During this streak, the team's offensive and defensive quality has improved significantly. Key player Kawhi Leonard has been averaging 33.6 points, 9.3 rebounds, and 4.6 assists, showcasing a dominant performance. The Detroit Pistons, on the other hand, are leading the Eastern Conference with a 24-7 record, with their offensive and defensive efficiency ranking among the league's best. The Pistons' core player, number one draft pick Cade Cunningham, scored 29 points and delivered a personal season-high 13 assists in the first half of their recent match against the Utah Jazz, ending the game with 17 assists. The Pistons show a trend of improved outside shooting. They are slightly below average in rebounding this season, though their offensive rebounding efficiency remains high. However, they still face challenges in their offensive organisation, with relatively low average assist numbers. They have a strong ability to steal the ball, but they need to improve their defensive intensity to reduce turnovers. The Clippers' pace of play is generally slow, emphasizing inside scoring and physical contact. However, if they fail to control fast breaks, their outside defense could be exposed. Facing a Pistons team that focuses on transition offense, the Clippers need to control the game's rhythm while strengthening their rotations to protect the basket. Los Angeles Clippers +3.5
