So we can all agree that the Wizards are an awful team. They’re one of the teams that the currently 2-13 Detroit Pistons seem like they can beat and they face them on Monday. But after that, it cannot be understated how tough their schedule will be for the remaining calendar year.
Here is the Pistons upcoming schedule, from today up to December 31st (Technically the 30th is their last game for 2023):
2x Pacers
1x Wizards
1x Lakers
2x 76ers
2x Nets
1x Jazz
1x Cavs
1x Knicks
1x Bucks
1x Hawks
1x Celtics
1x Raptors
With the exception of perhaps the Jazz - who are also in the midst of a rebuild albeit one where they snapped their recent losing streak - that is 14 games which seem difficult to win given they are against playoff teams or teams aiming to make them.
The Detroit Pistons are currently on a 12-game losing streak. They have won less games in the calendar year of 2023 (9) than the city’s NFL team, the Lions (10; they went 2-0 in January 2023)
They’ll beat the wizards easy, utah maybe and even indiana tomorrow is a trap game
Every Pistons/Raptors series since 2016/17 has been a clean sweep (2016-2018, 2019/20, 2022/23 for the Raptors; 2018/19, 2020/21-21/22) and the Raptors already won the first game
Yeah but the raptors are shit this year
Even if the raptors are garbage, there’s garbage, then 50 feet of crap, then the pistons.
We’ve had some stinkers this year and we ragdolled the pistons.
