Pistons at Cavaliers live stream: How to watch online

The struggling Cavs look to get back on the winning track against the equally struggling Pistons.

When the Cleveland Cavaliers traded nearly their entire roster before the clock ran out on NBA Trade Deadline day, it seemed like the Cavs were back to doing what they were doing best the past three seasons: winning.

Those good vibes have now morphed into a sea of the struggle for LeBron James and the new-look Cavs.

You could chalk up their 4-4 record since the trade deadline to getting familiar with each other, and that could very well be the case. Another excuse for Cleveland has popped up in the form of injuries. Not only are the Cavs still without the services of Kevin Love, but they lost Tristan Thompson too, as he hyperextended his knee in Saturday’s 126-11 loss to the surging Denver Nuggets.

Per the Cavs, Thompson is expected to be out “multiple” games, which is something that Cavs fans doesn’t want to hear now that their team is in the home stretch of the season. Oh, and to add insult to injury, the NBA Gods dealt Cleveland another blow as they will be without reserve Jeff Green, further crippling the Cavs second-unit.

While the Cavs are going through a storm right now, the Detroit Pistons are going through a hurricane. The trade for Blake Griffin was supposed to ignite Detroit, but they are just 6-8 since the star forward landed in Motown and sit four-and-a-half games in back of the Miami Heat for the eighth and final playoff spot.

One of Piston’s sore spots of late is its 3-point shooting, in which they’re ranked 20th in percentage (34.5 percent) since the trade. There are more issues with the Pistons, and they need to figure them out before the playoffs become a distant memory.
