the pistons need to win 5 games to avoid tying the franchise record for losses in a season.
by "srs" this is already the worst team in franchise history. three of the worst 5 seasons have come under weaver.
the 16 win pistons did not have a first round pick the next year (the worst team by record but 3rd worst in srs). how depressing would that be? they still won 21 games the next year and got isiah thomas #2 in the 1981 draft. they took kelly tripuka as well as isiah and won 39 games the next year.
under troy weaver the pistons have had 5 lottery picks and have gotten worse each season. i'm not even mad. that's such impressive futility its amazing.
the hinkie sixer won 19, 18, and 10 before the nba pulled the plug and forced them to fire hinkie and hire brian "burner phone" colangelo. the pistons under weaver have won 20, 23, 17, and 12. does the league just not care about the pistons? is that why they make us live through this hell?
