Charlotte Hornets vs Detroit Pistons Prediction: Will the Hornets be able to break their losing streak?

Charlotte has lost five games in a row and will now take on Detroit. Will the Hornets be able to break their losing streak?

The Hornets have a rough start to the season. It seems that their lack of success is injuries that plague the team and a lack of chemistry with their new head coach, Steve Clifford. The experienced defensive coach has to rebuild his game, given his lack of resources to play his usual style. It's not working out so well yet.

Charlotte is coming into the meeting with Detroit with a five-game losing streak. Their opponent in this stretch was powerful - Milwaukee, the Clippers, Brooklyn, New York, and Philadelphia.

The Pistons have not competed for anything, but draft picks in several seasons. It's clear even now that the team will finish at the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings in the current league. Detroit has only seven wins in 29 games and is in last place. Interestingly, Charlotte is in the penultimate spot.

The Hornets have not yet become a low-scoring team under Steve Clifford - the coach lacks the personnel resources to achieve that goal. Charlotte's defense will likely struggle again in the game against Detroit, although the offense, led by the great Terry Rozier, could bring the team the long-awaited win. The Pistons have one of their worst offenses this season, and the team may not take full advantage of their opponent's defensive weaknesses.
