Game 11: Cavs (8-2) @ Pistons (5-5) - 7:30pm ET

GAME THREAD: CAVS VS. PISTONS - 11/17/15 (7:30pm ET)


Sorry guys, this is going to be a subpar game thread. Been really busy lately.

Starting Lineups:

Cavaliers:
PG - Mo Williams
SG - JR Smith
SF - LeBron James
PF - Kevin Love
C - Timofey Mozgov

Pistons:
PG - Reggie Jackson
SG - Kentavius Caldwell-Pope
SF - Marcus Morris
PF - Ersan Illyasova
C - Andre Drummond

Notes:

- We're currently 3-2 on the road while the Pistons are 2-1 at home, so this isn't going to be easy.
- Also, the Pistons are on a 4 game losing streak since starting 5-1. Some may interpret that as a good thing for us, but I think they'll be hungry for a win here, especially since teams play games against us like they're playoff games.
- The key to this game will be keeping Drummond off the glass. Hopefully, Mozgov can hold his own because Tristan and Love are going to get bullied.
- Will Good JR show up? Give us something!
- We haven't played since Saturday, so the guys are nice and rested. We need to come out with energy and establish our offense and defense early on.

Let's Start a New Winning Streak! Forget About the Last Loss! Go Cavs!

Have the Cavs made a buzzer beating basket this season?

LeBron has been fantastic off to ball. But where is Love?

Man, LeBron's on pace to drop 50, and this is close. Love needs to show up.

Funny how everyone has a homecourt advantage except the Cavs. As always the opponents get away with a lot of fouling while Cavs get lots of touch fouls

Moz seriously needs to pick it up this year. He's been terrible. Too bad our bench is Andy and TT. Neither are rim protectors.

Let's make this a blowout so we can give LBJ some rest in the fourth.

Return to Cleveland Cavaliers
