1980's basketball wasn't just a scoring contest, teams actually played defense. Bring back the biff?
In the below video I laughed at the comment, that Charles Barkley hated Bill Laimbeer more than any other player in the NBA....outside of Boston.

Detroit Pistons - Sell the Team
Who owns the NBA's Detroit Pistons? They could beat the single season worst run of losses. They sit on 25 straight losses right now, after going down 119-111 to the Utah Jazz. Two more losses and they're on their own as the worst losing run in history in a single season. And they're four losses away from setting the worst losing run in history when considering adjoining seasons.
C'mon, the Pistons have won titles, they're not perennial losers like the Clippers. The owner needs to sell up, he's clearly got no idea how to put together a winning team.

Low-scoring NBA Game
Finally, we have seen a regular season NBA game where the result seems to reflect a genuine basketball score. Charlotte Hornets beat the Detroit Pistons 87-76. I'm assuming that defense took precedence, as it should. These type of games are rare these days, with shooters, and the referees that protect them, holding sway.
