Game review
What happened
The 76ers beat the Pistons 112–106 on the road. Jaylen Brown led them with 30 points and 7 rebounds, and Joel Embiid added 26. For the Pistons, Duncan Robinson had 27 points, making 7 of 11 threes.
What the model got right
Dominick Barlow for the 76ers, and Jalen Duren for the Pistons, both missed the game, as the preview expected. Our team-strength rating also had the 76ers as the stronger side (95.9 to 89.4).
What didn't work
The model made the Pistons a slight favourite at 62%, and that was wrong: the 76ers won by 6. The 76ers out-rebounded the Pistons 48–40.
Why
The 76ers already rated clearly stronger on paper, so the pick leaned on home court, which is a thin margin. Even at 62%, about 4 in 10 games like this go the other way, and this was one of them. It stays on our record like every other result.
