Episode Notes

🚨 The Detroit Pistons are still alive — and now the Cleveland Cavaliers have a real problem.

On today’s episode of Locked On NBA  Haize & Swipa break down the Pistons’ dominant 115-94 Game 6 win over the Cavs, as Cade Cunningham leads Detroit into a massive Game 7 back at home. The Pistons controlled the second half, overwhelmed Cleveland with physical defense, crashed the offensive glass, and got a huge lift from their bench as Detroit forced yet another elimination-game win this postseason.

Cade Cunningham finished with 21 points and five made threes, Jalen Duren added a double-double, and Detroit’s reserves outscored Cleveland’s bench 48-19. Meanwhile, the Cavs struggled with turnovers, inconsistent offense, and a lack of response after getting hit early. Donovan Mitchell admitted Cleveland “got hit in the mouth,” while James Harden said the Cavs never found another level.

Haize dives into whether the Pistons are becoming the most dangerous team left in the East, what this Game 6 says about Cade Cunningham’s superstar leap, and whether Cleveland is in serious danger of letting this series slip away.

Cade Cunningham’s playoff growth

Cavs’ turnover issues and offensive struggles
