Top 5 NBA Most Disappointing Teams (So Far)

This season, they are so many surprises that may affect its league credibility. The virtue of disappointment will exist. In my personal perspective, this are the five ballclubs that creates me a doubt. Of course, struggles is my basis.


At the end of the day, there will be subsisting lessons that we may get and will serve as arsenal for the future of this league.



5. Detroit Pistons

After Chauncey Billups, Wallace brothers (Rasheed and Ben) and recently Rip Hamilton leaved this club, the Pistons are totally in despair.

This makes their fans sick. When they will revive their glory days as one of the strong franchise?

In this current season, they suffered tremendous 8-game losing skid during its first part of regular season.

In my personal assessment, coach Lawrence Frank did not know how to utilize his roster. That roster containing Greg Monroe, Rodney Stuckey, veteran mainstay Tayshaun Prince and sophomore Brandon Knight can compete even to the strongest teams of this league.

Being 'hungry' to the victory is the missing link for them.

I hope in the next few years, Pistons will not be included in this type of list. They had capability to do that. Patience is a virtue, as we know, quote addicts.


4. New Orleans Hornets

Although they picked top center Anthony Davis and very famous Austin Rivers in the recent 2012 NBA Draft, the Hornets are in a slightly dismayed state.

The influence of its new owner Tom Benson revived this franchise after the Chris Paul trade to the Clippers. They acquired big man shooter Ryan Anderson and long-haired Robin Lopez.

Chemistry is still their problem as of now. We did not know the maximum capacity of Davis as top over-all rookie because of his disturbing injury. I expected Rivers to make his statement to the league but its make me sick. I browse his highlights during college but he failed to deliver it to higher league.

When Davis is back, we will assess his performance. Currently, Damian Lillard is the top choice for Rookie of the Year awards.


3. Sacramento Kings

The issue of transferring to its new state and arena kills this franchise right now. As far as I know, its already been settled by extending its stay to Sacramento. Now, the issue relives again.

The contributing factors for this Kings struggle is the injury of their franchise player Tyreke Evans (i think he is back in action) and big blow made by Demarcus Cousins to Dallas' OJ Mayo.

Cousin's mental problem shall be resolved quickly unless it will become worse.

Lack of hustle may resulted to wrong perception to this club. They can't sustain their confidence by making counter attacks by their opponents.

I think, transfer to the new arena is the best solution for them. It can makes boost of confidence for them and if it will happen, both Cousins and Evans will retain. They had a capability now to hire a quite big names in the free agency market.

But as of now, we will see more squirming games for them if Keith Smart will not impose best solution.


2. Washington Wizards

Twelve game losing skid to the introductory part of regular season characterized this team. The maximum potential of rookie Bradley Beal expects by his fans after the left knee injury of its main man John Wall. They had a same leaping ability to make a tons of points but the opposition occured right now.

I think both Wall and Beal are deadly duo of this franchise if it will use properly by implementing the system compatibles with them.

John Wall's presence will be the turning point for this team- whether they will continue losing or surprisingly hold more wins to earn at least lowest playoff rank. We will see..


1. LA Lakers

The Lakers fan club around the planet angry on what's going on for this super ballclub. After their disappointing 2nd round exit to the Thunder, they notched best center and pointguard named Dwight Howard and Steve Nash.

At the start of regular season, Lakers had a miserable 1-4 card. The management leading by Jim Buss dismissed the services of Mike Brown.

The unknown mentor named Bernie Bickerstaff bring this famous franchise to an identical 4 victories out of 5 games.

Currently, they had a very known offensive coach named Mike D'Antoni but the Lakers are struggling with his system.

The trade drama woes surrounding Spanish big man Pau Gasol and either Toronto Raptors or Minnesota Timberwolves. But GM Mitch Kupchak stated that they will try Gasol to fit to D'Antoni's system otherwise, you know what I'm saying.

Tons of moneys flow for this team to get two superstars to pair with another superstar but the poison of losing continues for them.
