Well, as we predicted, the Detroit Pistons helped end the 26 game losing streak for the Philadelphia 76ers.

That's right. The Philly team tied the NBA record for most consecutive losses -- 26 -- the other night when the team went down in defeat against Houston.

But Saturday, the 76ers ended the streak, beating the Pistons in Philadelphia 123-98.

So Philly, say "thank you Detroit."  -- Allan Lengel
