Detroit Pistons set a sad NBA record with 27 consecutive losses

Despite playing one of their best games in recent times, the Detroit Pistons, led by star Cade Cunningham, lost 112-118 to the Brooklyn Nets and extended their losing streak to 27 games, the longest losing streak in an NBA season.

The Disappointment of the Detroit Pistons

The Detroit Pistons are now just one game away from the longest losing streak in North American professional basketball history (28 games). The Philadelphia 76ers lasted from the end of the 2014-2015 season to the beginning of the 2015-2016 season. In the next match, the Detroit Pistons had to face the Boston Celtics, a team in very good form and currently leading the entire NBA. They will most likely equal the Philadelphia 76ers' sad record.

This is the fourth year of the Detroit Pistons' rebuilding process under the expensive 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 games, Cade Cunningham and his teammates have plummeted with 27 consecutive losses.

Coach Monty Williams said: “When you look at bad records, you think about managers, but I'm sure the players don't want that attached to their names on the shirt. It probably bothers me more than anyone else. The players are playing their hearts out. I'm looking for all the players not to be too burdened with the current situation."
