The Washington Wizards lost to the Detroit Pistons last night, 130-117. Let’s take a step back from the emotion (negative or … very negative) about the loss and look at the numbers. Kevin Broom is traveling this week, so you have to deal with me again.
The Wizards play this same Pistons team on Thursday night. Hopefully … the score is closer and we won’t see Washington get closer to a franchise record losing streak. Or worse — get toward the NBA’s record losing streak of 28 games, which the Pistons (yes, the Pistons) did just two seasons ago, or the Philadelphia 76ers from the end of the 2014-15 through 2015-16 seasons.
