After an incredibly terrible loss against the Boston Celtics, the Detroit Pistons extended their losing run to 28 in the recently concluded American professional basketball tournament (NBA).
The Detroit Pistons are a very good team as usual, and they have a strong desire to put an end to the most disappointing stretch of bad games in NBA history. Despite the Celtics’ late-half attempts, the Pistons led by example in the first half thanks to the consistent scoring of key players like Cade Cunningham and Bojan Bogdanovic.
In the second half, the Pistons’ shooting unit put on an even worse display, while Payton Pritchard, a backup for the Celtics, was the most impressive player on the other end of the court.
The Pistons put up an incredible 19-point lead over the Celtics thanks to 22 points from Cade Cunningham before halftime. Recall that the Pistons had lost 27 straight games prior to this one, while the Celtics had not dropped a game at home this season.
