The Detroit Pistons are in a miserable, miserable spot. Not only did they enter the Barclays Center on Saturday night one loss shy of tying the all-time record for consecutive L’s, but they’re sure to get each team’s best shot.
Dorian Finney-Smith may denied that the Brooklyn Nets would feel an added pressure to defeat the worst team in the league: “Nah. We trying to get off this losing streak as well, so ain’t no pressure. We just want to win.”
Finney-Smith’s political answer aside, no NBA team wants to be known as the squad that finally, mercifully let Detroit get off the schneid.
