Can the Cavs beat the Pistons?

No LeBron may be the best player in the game, but the Pistons are the best team. If you shut down one of the scorers they still have 2 or 3 others who can take on the load. I think they are the best team in the NBA.

Did you see detroit completely kill indiana today. I think they won by about 30. The pistons have a great bench and are not going to let the heat even come close to beating them.

Detroit will bounce back and attack seriously. Joe Dumars need to get up and start looking for some role players. Because Detroit only used 8 players. Come on. You got to have a deep bench or a bench that is solid like the Bulls had back in there championship days. Because them boys were tired. LeBron and the Cavs ran them boys. Miami is LUCKY that they had a tired Pistons team to play against. You can look at those games and see them boys were tired. Chauncey Billups, Ben Wallace, Rip, and Rasheed they were tired. Why you think TayShaun Prince was scoring so much and plus Rasheed didn't Guaranteed a win in this series when they were down. COME ON. Rasheed made his guarantee against the Cavs and won, last year against the Heat and won, Pacers and won, 2 years ago against the Pacers and WON. You know they were tired. they are not sweating this lost. Miami is LUCKY TO DEATH. Because if they were to face a Healthy Detroit Pistons, ready to go boys. Oh we would be seeing Dallas and Detroit going at it. Detroit is coming back so Miami get ready to face the real Detroit PISTONS.

Only if they get past the Pistons, which I don't think they will. The Western Conference isn't as dominant as it was a couple years ago, so they have a legit shot; provided they get past their toughest opponent, Detroit.

their star player is Lebron James.  I think they just depended on him to bring them back on a day when he wasnt feelin his best.  sure they have Ilgauskas but he cant do much without team support and most of that was goin to Lebron.  and bein at detroit really didnt help like you said but i dont think it was a set up.  the pistons were ranked #1 so i wasnt really expecting them to lose no matter where they played.

If they survive the first quarter and don't committ a bunch of turnovers they'll be all right, but I think the Pistons will win.\n\nThe key to beating the Pistons is to not commit a bunch of turnovers allowing them to get easy baskets.  You also have to play a smart halfcourt game.  They thrive on you making mistakes and make you pay with easy baskets.

The Bulls definately have gotten better overall with the addition of Ben Wallace to an already sound defense. But they are still young and don't have many players on their roster with playoff experience. \n\nThe Pistons have lost Wallace, who for 4 years has been their identity. Sure they have Chaucey Billups, Tayshawn Prince and Rip Hamilton, but losing their defensive presence in the middle and adding Nazr Mohammed to the team has reformed them as a running team. \n\nThe Cavaliers are my pick to win the Central. They have the same starting 5 from a year ago and if Larry Hughes and Zydrunas Ilgauskas can stay healthy, then a championship run is definately in the cards for them. Remember, they have the King... the best player in the NBA.\n\nCavs- 57-25\nBulls- 54-28\nPacers- 48-34\nPistons- 44-38\nBucks- 42-40\n\nOnce again, all Central teams make playoffs.

Miami. Here's why. They're showing their toughness very early in this series and the way they're shooting right now, if they continue playing the way they did in game one, and make the necessary adjustments to remain consistently effective, they are going to the NBA Finals. Rasheed is still ailing from an ankle injury, and the rest of the Pistons squad is pretty tired from going seven games against the Cavs. Making the necessary adjustments this late in the playoffs was the talk all-over sports media. It'll be interesting to see what Detroit can do and what Miami is going to try next!!!!

If they are at the top of their games all at the same time this series wouldnt even be close. The Wizards would just flat out level the Cavs. Now if they all have average games and one of them is a standout the Wizards still have the edge. Coach says they will play more physical on LeBron like in game 2 which should result in a Wizard win. Experience, Lots of opions and an inside presence gives the Wizards the edge as long as Arenas doesnt have a bad game of poker at half.

Well put Sonic.  Both teams will play well the rest of the way, and I think that the Cavs will pull it out.  LeBron is the future of the NBA, and Kobe's not really old, either, he's not going anywhere for ten years.  But no one will get passed the Pistons, so forget about it.

I am going to say what I've said all season. Detroit has been on cruise control for SO LONG because of the lack of competition, that they've forgotten what they need to do when it comes to "gassing" out games against better teams. Personally, I think the Pistons are one of the most over hyped teams in the league, and for one reason only: Lack of competition. They have beaten who? The Bucks?! The Cavaliers (and even THAT isn't decided yet)?! The competition in the East is hardly there, and playing teams lesser than you doesn't make you better. You need teams that can play on your level to decide if you're truly the best--and Detroit has yet to do that. Can Detroit change this? Absolutely! But now with Cleveland revamped and recharged, this series is a WHOLE nother' ball game...!

Lebron will become the MVP best active player in basketball. Fills all stats points assists, steals, rebounds, blocks. He leads the Cavs and they are doing better now then I could ever remember before.\nWade Is great for points and steals. I think that D Wade is in the top 5 of active players.\nI think it will be ! win Cavs and 1 win for the Detroit.\nthe scores will be 95 (cavs) 92 (Detroit)\n85 (cavs) 88 (Detroit)
