In the recently completed 23-win season for the Detroit Pistons, they also had to face numerous bad losses. It also looked like at one point that they would never be able to win again. There were other teams in the streak and most of them were good while there were a few that faced serious bad losses. It so happened that the Pistons faced an embarrassing defeat by the Orlando Magic, while Cunningham was seen struggling in the game. On the other hand, Magic’s Rookie of the Year candidate shined.
In the game that happened in January, where Orlando faced Detroit, 39 points were scored in the first quarter, making it a 20-point lead by the Magic. This was an ultimate embarrassment that the Pistons had to face!
