Although the Detroit Pistons played one of their best matches in recent times, star Cade Cunningham’s team still lost 112-118 to the Brooklyn Nets and accepted to continue their losing streak. they increased to 27 matches. This is a sad record as they are the team with the longest losing streak in an NBA season.
Currently, the Detroit Pistons are only 1 game away from the longest losing streak in North American professional basketball history (28 games of the Philadelphia 76ers spanning from the end of the 2014 – 2015 season to the beginning of the 2015 – 2016 season). In the next match, the Detroit Pistons must face the Boston Celtics, a team that is in very high form and is at the top of the entire NBA at this time. Most likely they will equal the sad record of the Philadelphia 76ers.
This is the fourth year in the process of rebuilding the Detroit Pistons’ roster under valuable coach Monty Williams (Coach of The Year 2021). However, positive results have not yet come and the Detroit Pistons even show signs of regression compared to last season. After 2 wins in the first 3 matches, Cade Cunningham and his teammates plummeted with 27 consecutive losses.
Coach Monty Williams said: “When you look at sad records you think of the coaches, but I’m sure the players don’t want that associated with the name on the shirt. Maybe that bothers me more than anyone else. The players are playing hard. I want all the players not to be too burdened with their current situation.”
