Detroit Pistons lose HISTORIC 27th consecutive game | SportsCenter

You know there’s only six teams ever in the four major North American sports that have lost 26 games in a row the Buccaneers in the NFL 1976 in Major League Baseball the Louisville Colonels in 1889 we remember that obviously yes exactly the rest happened in the NBA including the Pistons this season they

Lost number 26 straight on Saturday in Brooklyn to tie the record for single season futility a loss to the Nets at home Tuesday would put them in the annals of NBA history for all the wrong reasons normally your trying to make NBA history but not of this variety again

Two wins this year against Charlotte and Chicago they actually lost to this team and the Pistons have not fared well against the Nets as you can see of late although they’re playing some inspired ball they don’t want to set the record but of course the Nets on the other side

Don’t want to be the team that actually puts this streak to an end they played some inspired basketball with some defense leading to some offense as the Pistons take an 18-7 lead as Cade hits bogdanovich in the corner for three the lead would balloon to 14 and you’re

Thinking this is going to be their night we saw this team just three nights ago we got them on our home floor everything’s working until it wasn’t Bridges and the Nets have wiped out the 14-point edge and then it’s all part of a 90 run for Brooklyn to take a 42

38 lead couple minutes later check this out Nick Claxton swats the dunk attempt running the floor Den witty finally healthy lobin to Claxton and the Nets took a seven-point lead to the half so it’s a 21o swing in the first half a 14-point Pistons lead now a seven-point

Deficit in Detroit they call this guy the motor Cade cuz he has done literally everything 18 in the third they may have lost 26 in a row but he’s kept them in there and he’s kept the level head which is really more interesting a young guy that you’re trying to build around could

Be completely demoralized being on a team like this bogdanovic for three as they try to rally and you better believe the Pistons are taking the lead and it’s great to see the fans showing up and really supporting them this is a franchise that’s done a ton of winning

They’re not used to things like this extra ball pass movement Cunningham again so now the Pistons are up five with 8 minutes to go can they just seal the deal the Nets are like no way we are not going to be in this sentence of dubious history and then

Cunningham splitting it wow he had 41 still wasn’t enough Pistons down four got to give it to Cade crossover up and in next time the Nets have it Dorian finy Smith in the corner exhale Breathing Room Nets lead by five 23 seconds to go it’s still a five-point

Game got to put it in Cunningham’s hands if you’re going to win you’re going to win you’re going to lose you’re going to lose this guy’s going to gain some experience either way it’s basically off of Cunningham a terrible turnover at the worst possible time and then some free

Throws that could have sealed it the Pistons are going to that seems fitting they’re going to drop their 27th in a row it’s the longest single losing streak in NBA history 118 112 the final let’s go inside the streak their last win October 28th against the Bulls that same night to

Show you how long ago it was the Diamondbacks won game two of the World Series again it’s impossible to believe the Pistons actually had a two- game winning streak that’s their two wins they won back to back again they’re hanging in there as you see single digit

Games five-point games but when you have a young team with a first year coach it’s just hard to close games by the way Monty Williams second highest paid coach in the NBA he’ll be earning his money because this is really difficult to watch and then again you go to the

Sixers they lost more but it spans more than two seasons here’s Monty you have to be real about where we are nobody wants something like this attached to them the bottom line is it’s it’s it’s my job it’s my responsibility been through tough playoff losses and um this

Is relative to that when you lose a playoff game when you get eliminated something this you know kind of feels like that um you know basketball is what we do it’s the body of body of work that we um take a lot of pride in and you take pride in

It because you want to win and we just haven’t done that and again that’s on me don’t jump off the boat we got to stay together uh right now is the easiest time to to stand off and be on your own um but we need to continue to lean on each

Other and continue to push each other and hold each other accountable more than ever now it weighs on us every day I mean everywhere ways on us Zub in the last time the Pistons won a game Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift barely made it official if Detroit loses to the

Celtics on Thursday and the Raptors on Saturday they will have gone two full months without a win slow your roll though you got to take a look at the Long View

Zubin Mehenti and Arda Ocal recap top plays and moments from the Detroit Pistons’ 118-112 loss to the Brooklyn Nets, marking their 27th-straight loss and setting the new NBA record for longest single-season losing streak in history.
