FAST BREAKDOWN
Three quick observations from Monday night’s 126-119 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers at Quicken Loans Arena
RED-HOT CAVS – It wasn’t anything like 16 days ago, when the Pistons won by 36 points and the game was essentially decided in the first half. The Pistons couldn’t miss that day, shooting 54 percent and knocking down 20 3-pointers. This time it was Cleveland’s turn. The Cavaliers hit their first eight shots of the fourth quarter and made 6 of 9 from the 3-point arc to inflict a damaging loss on the Pistons in the midst of their playoff push.
