The Wine and Gold suffered a demoralizing loss to the shorthanded Detroit Pistons, Tuesday. Not only did they lose the game in confidence-sapping fashion, but they also lost Kevin Love who broke his left hand early in the game and could be out a rumored six to eight weeks. The game was over when Isaiah Thomas checked in for Dwyane Wade with 6:29 left in the fourth and the Cavs’ down by three. Instead of letting Thomas ride the pine down the stretch like he did Sunday, Lue chose to play him and end all hope the Cavs had of winning.
Recap: Detroit 124, Cleveland 115 (IT’s a Shame, IT’s a Pity)
