Weird NBA record last night
Here is a future trivia question.
AUBURN HILLS, Mich. -- Richard Hamilton went into the NBA record book Thursday night with a bizarre distinction. The Detroit Pistons swingman became the first player in league history to lead his team in scoring without making a field goal, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. Hamilton, who had 14 points, missed all 10 of his shots from the floor and made all 14 free throws in a 101-79 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies. "It was just one of those nights," he said. Hamilton, who averages a team-high 20.3 points on 43 percent shooting, wasn't the only one to have a rough outing. Memphis held the defending NBA champions to 31.3 percent shooting, forced 23 turnovers and blocked 15 shots. "I never thought I would have to coach effort," Pistons coach Larry Brown said. "I've never had to do that in my entire life, and this is the last group that I expected to have to do it with. "Maybe a game like this will make us recognize how bad it is." |
