Two of the best teams in the NBA get together on Friday in Detroit as the Pistons host the San Antonio Spurs.  Detroit is coming off a poor performance on Wednesday when they lost 83-82 to Philadelphia. "We were terrible," head coach Flip Saunders said. "The score isn't reflective of the way we played - we shouldn't have only lost this game by one point." Detroit is just 4-3 in their last seven games. SBG Global reports that early NBA betting has the public taking Pistons at Home.
