Auburn Hills, MI (SportsNetwork.com) - Robert Covington scored 25 points off the bench to lead the Philadelphia 76ers to a 108-101 overtime win on Saturday. Michael Carter-Williams had 20 points, 15 assists and eight rebounds and Luc Mbah a Moute added 14 points with 11 rebounds for the Sixers, who have won two of their last three since opening the season 0-17. Meanwhile, Detroit has taken the dubious distinction of basketballs longest losing streak as it dropped an 11th straight game. The Pistons have not won since a Nov. 14 decision over the Oklahoma City Thunder at Chesapeake Energy Arena. Josh Smith totaled 23 points with eight rebounds and Kyle Singler added 21 in the setback. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope hit a free throw to break the deadlock 2:23 into the extra session. Henry Sims then gave the Sixers a 102-101 lead with a jumper 40 seconds later. It was an offensive struggle throughout the overtime period, as Nerlens Noel hit a floater in the lane to extend the lead to 104-101 with 29.9 seconds left. Caldwell-Pope missed a pair of 3s on the Pistons next possession, and Carter- Williams knocked down a pair of free throws to seal the win. Detroit brought an 82-77 lead into the fourth quarter. The Pistons opened it up a bit as Smith followed a Covington 3-pointer with two straight baskets to increase the margin to 89-80. Philadelphia countered, though, as it ripped off seven straight with Mbah a Moutes free throws cutting the deficit to 89-87 with 8:42 left in regulation. Caron Butler fired in a 3-pointer at the other end before Cartier Martin netted a layup to restore a seven-point cushion. Detroit went scoreless over the next 5:07 as Carter-Williams gave the Sixers the lead with a layup. Singler followed with a three-point play and Smiths hook shot made it 99-95 with 59.7 seconds left. Philadelphia found itself down 100-97 with 15.6 seconds left when Hollis Thompson canned a corner 3 to tie the game. Carter-Williams played solid defense on Brandon Jennings on the final possession and the game headed to overtime. Earlier, Covingtons 3 tied the game late in the first quarter, then Carter- Williams knocked down a pair of free throws to give the Sixers a 30-28 lead after 12 minutes. The Sixers led by three with 4 1/2 minutes to play in the second when Mbah a Moutes free throw started a 9-2 run that gave the visitors a 50-40 lead. The Pistons followed with an 11-4 run as Smith and D.J. Augustin each scored four points to close the gap to 54-51 at the break.

Watching them over the past year - and in some cases, two years - has given us a starting point for this seasons Craigs List. http://www.mexiconationalshop.us/Hirving...-Jersey-Soccer/. Not to be outdone, Atletico Madrid bettered its title rivals by demolishing 10-man Getafe 7-0 with Diego Costa returning from injury to score with a brilliant bicycle kick. "It was an almost perfect night," Atletico coach Diego Simeone said. Marco Fabian Jersey . His second visit, not so much.

Diego Reyes Jersey . "He came up to me and said, I want to train," said Toronto coach Ryan Nelsen. The 26-year-old midfielder is expected to play Saturday night when Toronto hosts D.C. United, returning to his Major League Soccer squad with mixed feelings about the Americans World Cup run -- sad that it ended when it did but proud of his teams performance.NEW YORK, N.Y. - NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and players union chief DeMaurice Smith met Tuesday to discuss the leagues personal conduct policy.Neither side released details of the meeting.The NFL Players Association has been unhappy with what it calls lack of transparency in the NFLs policy. Smith has said the only way to have a fair policy is if the NFL and owners commit to collective bargaining.The NFL counters that the union agreed to the policy during labour negotiations to end the 2011 lockout. That collective bargaining agreement runs through 2021.The union also is displeased with the way Goodell increased the minimum penalty for violation of the policy to six games following the Ray Rice case. The league contends the personal conduct policy gives him that right.Smith and the players are seeking neutral arbitration for all personal conduct disciplinary decisions. They also believe Goodell should be removed from that process. But the NFL says any issues dealing with the integrity of the league should be handled by the commissioner.The dispute has been ongoing since the end of August, when Goodell increased the minimum punishment for personal misconduct from two games to six. That decision came following Rices suspension for two games for punching his then-fiancee (now wife) Janay in a casino elevator.Soon after, a video of the running backs punch went public, and Rice was suspended indefinitely and Baltimore cut him.Rices appeal has been heard by former U.S. Districtt Judge Barbara Jones, but she has not announced a decision.ddddddddddddLast week, the league suspended Vikings running back Adrian Peterson for the rest of the season for using a wooden switch to discipline his 4-year-old son. Peterson pleaded no contest and received a misdemeanour charge and probation requirements.Peterson had been on a commissioners exemption list and was paid by the team while he sat out. Goodell ruled he can apply for reinstatement April 15.In an email last week to The Associated Press, Smith said: There is one fact that does make those things similar though, and that is the NFL is clearly making things up as they go along. Our goal is to pursue a new personal conduct policy that is fair, transparent and consistent. The only way that happens is if the NFL and the owners commit to collective bargaining.Troy Vincent, the NFLs executive vice-president of football operations and former president of the union, countered that Goodells authority was collectively bargained with the union in 2011, while the personal conduct policy in place nearly 20 years has never been part of contract negotiations.The union agreed to the commissioner maintaining authority to discipline. The league believes it is in the best interest of football to retain that authority, Vincent said. The league is following the process dictated by the CBA.___AP Pro Football Writer Rob Maaddi contributed to this story.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL ' ' '
