Sports Scene rolls along with basketball -- and rolling is what the San Antonio Spurs have been doing. The team from the Alamo City had not lost at home all season -- and up until yesterday, they were one of two clubs in that spot, but the NBA champion Warriors were upset by Boston.

That's a fate Kawhi Leonard and the Spurs wanted to avoid as they hosted the Toronto Raptors, and looked to improve to 39-and-oh at the At&T Centre.

Part of the reason for San Antone's record is the play of LaMarcus Aldridge -- who finishes the fast break to put his side up 10. He was a beast on the block. He had 31.

Kawhi Leonard would also do his part -- this bucket in transition has the hosts up 8 in third. And the former Finals MVP would have a career-high 33, as the Spurs win it 102-95, move to 39-0 at home, and set a club record with their 64th win this year.

Chicago would host Detroit in another game with playoff implications. Aaron Brooks is able to get to the cup, as the former Guangdong guard puts the Bulls up 2.

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope comes off the screen and gets the hand off, and answers that with a three-ball as Detroit goes in front. 13 for KCP.

More from the Pistons as Reggie Jackson gets into the lane, and Andre Drummond is able to get the cram -- 4-point lead.

Jimmy Butler then cuts to the rack. The Bulls guard would tally his first career triple double. 28 points, 17 boards, and 12 assists -- but his team trails.

Under a minute now and the Pistons salt it away -- Tobias Harris gets the putback off the transition. Detroit wins it by four -- and move closer to a playoff spot, while damaging Chicago's chances.

In other action Rudy Gay had 25 points to lead Sacramento over Denver. Portland blew out Miami by 17 points. Indiana came back from a 6-point deficit in the fourth to topple Philly.
