Following the NBA trade deadline, a resounding success for the Detroit Pistons, ESPN announced that it has added a couple Pistons games to its schedule. Keith Langlois relayed the good news:
Hey, #Pistons fans. ESPN picks up 2 games: March 7, 8 p.m., at San Antonio; March 14, 8 p.m., at Washington.

The Spurs game is actually Wed., March 2. Unfortunately, potentially not the greatest games for the nation to see our team. The Spurs game will be the Spurs' first home game in almost a month. It's also the Spurs. They're pretty good.
The game in DC, where the Pistons just lost by 12 on Friday night, will be the tail end of a four-game road trip for the Pistons, and sixth game in their last seven on the road, before a nine-game home stand. Odds will not be in the Pistons' favor in these two games.
But oh well. National TV!
