Pistons vs. Spurs GameThread and Preview: Boban and Baynes host former team, Spurs

For the second straight year, the Pistons pillaged a San Antonio Spurs big man - so two years in a row makes it a tradition, right?

Ray McCallum also played 31 games for the Spurs last season, but is unlikely to make an appearance tonight in order to get a look at Lorenzo Brown, who is also fighting for a spot on the roster.

The Pistons are looking for their first win of the preseason after dropping their opener to the Brooklyn Nets. Both teams were hot on offense in the first half, but the Detroit offense disappeared after halftime.

Players to watch

Pistons: Andre Drummond posted a nifty 17 points and 21 rebounds. But it wasn’t such a nifty shooting line, going 8-20 from the floor and 1-3 from the free throw line - thanks in a large part to a 1-9 second half shooting performance. Can he bounce back with an efficient game tonight?
Spurs: Former Piston Joel Anthony is fighting for a spot at the end of the Spurs roster. In his two years in Detroit, he was lightly used but was always a professional, tough, reliable presence. Hopefully he sticks in San Antonio.
