Pop Says Pistons Are 'A Ways Ahead' of Spurs

From The Detroit News:

The Pistons have tied for the fourth-best start in NBA history.

"I think they are playing a lot better than us right now," said Spurs coach Gregg Popovich, who joked before the game that the Spurs and Pistons would have to play well in the 'JV' game so people would stay and watch the 'varsity' game between the Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat. "We were close to them at the end of last year, but they are a ways ahead of us now."
