The NBA regular season continued, with the Spurs suffering a defeat against the Rockets, while the Wizards lost to the Philadelphia 76ers by 45 points, and the Pistons also lost to the Pacers. This has led to a 17-game losing streak for the Spurs, a five-game losing streak for the Wizards, and a 20-game losing streak for the Pistons.
In the Spurs vs. Rockets game, the two sides battled fiercely in the final moments of the game. Although the Rockets fell behind for a while, they did not give up hope of a comeback. However, at the critical moment, VanVleet's three-point shot, Eason exploded in a single quarter, directly crushing the Spurs, making the opponent lose the ability to turn the tide.
The Rockets' victory over the Spurs was also reminiscent of Wembanyama's attitude toward the Rockets in the draft, and now the Houston team has given the most powerful response. Popovich's Spurs have suffered a 17-game losing streak and are in the bottom of the West. The Pistons suffered a 20-game losing streak against the Pacers, just one game away from the longest losing streak in franchise history. And in the next game, they will face the 76ers and the Bucks.
The Pistons once saw hope of turning the tide in the game, and the opponent's core Haliburton performed mediocre and made more turnovers. However, the Pistons suffered a collapse in the second half of the game and eventually lost the game. It is not easy for the Pistons to turn the tide of decline, because the next opponent is strong, and the current Pistons are in a sluggish performance, the whole team has almost no tactics to speak of, and coach Monty's coaching is also questioned by the outside world.
The Wizards lost 101-146 against the 76ers, losing 45 points. The fact that they conceded 146 points in a single game and didn't play overtime speaks volumes about how bad the Wizards' defense is. A total of 15 players played on the court, all of whom scored, six of them scored in double figures, and Embiid led the way to completely destroy the Wizards.
The Wizards have suffered five consecutive defeats and are in second to last in the East with a record of 3 wins and 19 losses. The Spurs, Wizards and Pistons have won just one of their last 52 games, and it was a "civil war" between the three teams. The Wizards beat the Pistons, which means that they lost all of their games except for the three teams, which is really disappointing.
