Result:
WIN

This Spurs team got an earful from Popovich after they took a beating from the Pistons on Christmas Day. Now the public is all over San Antonio here at home looking for revenge. They may just get it but I think the Pistons keep this one close and challenge for the win. Detroit is simply THAT good. There's no way they are going to lay down here. They want to send a message that they can win on the road in this series too. Detroit is still the hungrier team. San Antonio has been great too but they struggle to perform against teams that don't turn the ball over. Against teams with <14 turnovers per game (Detroit = 11 per game), San Antonio is just 2-11 ATS this season. This should be a great game in which neither team gives up until the final buzzer. Two stars on the Pistons plus the points.
