What happened: The Detroit Pistons handled business at home in Game 2 to take a 2-0 series lead over the Cleveland Cavaliers, with the series now shifting back to Cleveland. Cade Cunningham posted 25 points and 10 assists in Game 2, while Tobias Harris contributed a strong supporting performance. Detroit is now two wins away from the Eastern Conference finals.

Why it matters: A 2-0 lead in a best-of-seven series is historically commanding, with teams holding it advancing the vast majority of the time. For Detroit, this would mark a stunning playoff turnaround after years of rebuilding, while Cleveland — a higher seed entering the series — now faces elimination pressure on its home floor. The Pistons have already snapped a 12-game playoff losing streak to Cleveland in this series.

What to watch: Game 3 in Cleveland will test whether the Cavaliers can defend home court and avoid a 3-0 hole. Watch for adjustments from Cleveland's coaching staff on Cunningham coverage and rebounding margin.
