This game will be some intense basketball, with Clev. coming off two horrible loses may come out and take a double digit lead to start the game. Detroit again will have to protect the energy plays the Cavs feed off of and stop dribble penetration by Lebron, make them all jumpshooters.

This game in the 2nd half will take on the same tone as the Indy game on thurs. where the Pistons will make a run and put the game away, but make no mistake about it this will be a hard fought game by the Cavs.

This is an important game for both teams, Detroit might see this team down the road in the playoffs and they want to send a message that they are a better team and leave no doubt in the minds of the Cavs. This game is important to the Cavs for the fact that they don't want another cave in 2nd half to their season.

My prediction for this game is Detroit 98 to 91. GO PISTONS!!!!!
