Detroit Pistons set sad NBA record with 27 consecutive losses

Despite playing one of their best games in recent memory, Cade Cunningham's team still lost 112-118 to the Brooklyn Nets and accepted to extend their losing streak to 27 games, a sad record for the team owning 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). Philadelphia 76ers lasted from the end of the 2014-2015 season to the beginning of the 2015-2016 season. In the next match, Detroit Pistons will face Boston Celtics, a team in very good form and is currently leading the entire NBA. They will most likely equal the sad record of Philadelphia 76ers.

This is the fourth year of the Detroit Pistons' rebuild 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 regressing 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 the coaches, 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."
