Why the Cavaliers’ Fragile Defense Could Spell Disaster Against Detroit’s Relentless Pistons Tuesday
The second and third betting favorites to win the Eastern Conference play Tuesday when the Cleveland Cavaliers (38-24) host the Detroit Pistons (45-14) for their second meeting in five days. As -8 home favorites, Detroit needed overtime to beat Cleveland, which was missing All-Stars Donovan Mitchell and James Harden, 122-119 Friday.Â
Mitchell will be out again Tuesday, but Harden is expected to return. This is the Pistons-Cavaliers regular-season finale. Detroit won two of the first three meetings, but Cleveland covered in two of the three contests. The Pistons have won five of their six games since the All-Star break, including three straight, while the Cavs are 4-3 straight up (SU) over that span.Â
