What our Post expert thinks about Cavaliers vs. Pistons

The Detroit Pistons validated their top-seed status in Game 1 with a physical, balanced performance that exposed the Cleveland Cavaliers’ weaknesses late in the game. 

Detroit controlled the paint through Jalen Duren’s rebounding and interior presence while also capitalizing on second-chance opportunities and a major free-throw advantage. 

The Pistons’ outside shooting, led by Duncan Robinson, helped them maintain control whenever Cleveland threatened a comeback. 

Cleveland clearly struggled with turnovers — especially from James Harden — despite strong efforts from Donovan Mitchell and Max Strus.
