No team in the NBA has been as depressing to watch this season as the Pistons.
At 2–16, Detroit has the worst record in the NBA this season. But even that doesn’t illustrate just how dismal the team has been. It’s in the midst of a 15-game losing streak, one of just 14 streaks that long in the last 10 seasons.
