Detroit Pistons Form
Detroit head to Texas on the back of a defeat but on a strong run of form, having won 10 of their 13 games since the start of February.
The Pistons began last month with home wins against Brooklyn, 130-77, and Denver, 124-121, and then responded to a 126-117 defeat to Washington with a five-game win streak.
They beat New York 118-80 at home, and then followed that up on the road as they downed Charlotte 110-104, Toronto 113-95, New York 126-111 and Chicago 126-110.
Detroit failed to make it six-in-a-row as they lost 114-103 to San Antonio, only to rebound with home successes against Oklahoma State, 124-116, and Cleveland, 122-119 in overtime.
The Pistons then went out on the road to down Orlando 107-92, but saw their winning run end on Tuesday as they fell to Cleveland, 113-109.
San Antonio Spurs Form
San Antonio have been the model of consistency since the start of February, winning 12 of their last 13 games.
The Spurs began last month with a 112-103 victory at home to Orlando, and that proved to be the start of a season-best 11-game win streak.
They downed Oklahoma City 116-106, won back-to-back meetings with Dallas, 135-123 and 138-125, and then went out on the road to beat the Los Angeles Lakers 136-108 and Golden State 126-113.
San Antonio then downed Phoenix and Sacramento at home, 121-94 and 139-122 respectively, before reeling off three straight road wins, beating Detroit 114-103, Toronto 110-107 and Brooklyn 126-110.
The Spurs’ run was finally ended by a 114-89 defeat in New York last Sunday, but they issued an immediate response in a 131-91 blowout of the 76ers in Philadelphia on Tuesday.
Verdict
Both teams enter this matchup in good form, but we give San Antonio the edge in this one.
San Antonio had too much for the Pistons in Detroit, and now they are back at home where they have been on a tear.
