Malik Beasley made a tiebreaking free throw with 1.1 seconds left in overtime after Miami was given a technical foul for calling a timeout when it had none left, and the Detroit Pistons edged the Heat 123-121 in an NBA Cup game on Tuesday night.

The Detroit Pistons will start their NBA Cup schedule tonight against the Miami Heat, hoping to build some momentum for the rest of the season. Response to the NBA Cup has mostly been “meh,” though there were some good games last season and results that should interest the young Pistons.

Miami Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra admitted that his own “horrendous mistake” cost the team in its 123-121 defeat to the Detroit Pistons in the NBA Cup on Tuesday.

Instead, it was a grave mistake by head coach Erik Spoelstra in the dying seconds of the game. Coach Spo called a timeout after the Pistons leveled the game at 121-121. However, the Heat had no timeouts left and it resulted in Spoelstra being slammed with a technical foul as Detroit sealed the game.
