Playoff Live Thread: Cavs vs Pistons (Game 6)
2026-05-15It’s a war of attrition, Cavs fans. While the flu has been ripping through the wine and gold, the Pistons have three questionable players: Caris LeVert, Kevin Huerter, and Duncan “the mustache” Robinson. Cavs need to kick some ass here, and blow this team out of the building.
The core four has been balling, Max Strus had been bringing the fire, and Schröder, Merrill, Wade, and a smidge of Tyson have been giving the Cavs just enough. Cleveland needs to play smart, ride the home crowd wave, and close this mother***er out. Go Cavs.


Getting jobbed
This is ugly as frick.
Either team is fodder for the Knicks
The ugliest O the Cavs have brought in a long time. Awful to watch.
Assists: 10. Turnovers: 16.
Terrible start, again.
TOs. Orebs.
Grab. The. Ball.
I hate this game’s energy. Cavs have to stop playing like they expect the Pistons to quit.
Nice finish, Jenkins
Would hate to lose a playoff game due to missed free throws.
More JA touches in paint, please
Come on Cavs fans. Stiff spines. No one thought this would be “easy,” right?
This game is sloppy as hell.
We have 13 TOs. They have 11.
Well, good close. Down only 3 is a win.
Despite missing 4 FTs late we got 2 boards. Strus cashed one in.
If I never hear Candace Parker doing color commentary again it will be too soon.
Hard to take.
She’s fine.
As always the cavs without the turnovers would be lights out.
Great close by the Cavs.
They did bring it at the end of half…Good thing.
Thank you Max.
3 on Thompson.
Terrible Harden possession then a Mitchell TO.
Down 12.
What are you up on Duren? He’s not going to shoot that.
Thankfully, Harris has been ice cold.
Schröder with a dime to Merrill. There we go. Down to 7.
We should go at Thompson to get the 3rd.
Still crappy.
Grabbed around the neck. Flagrant
21-4 sonce we were up 23-17.
Looked like a good block to me.
Some work to do
We have 10 FGs and 10 TOs.
You know, I am fine with a loss. This team ain’t going the diatance.
Wade unplayable tonight. Bench pitiful, too.
Fan just made $10K half court shot. Sign him up
This is garbage.
Geeze. Every single game these turnovers.
Grab the fucking ball!
We need some Tyson
Time to iso Harden on Robinson.
16-2 run.
Another TO.
Gonna lose by 20 at this rate.
Bench 17-0 Detroit.
Cavs just playing dumb. Too amped.
No. Dumb and soft. If they were amped, we’d be doing better on the glass.
Chucking 3s.
FTs: Det 8, Cle 2
Candace Parker is annoying as shit.
Totally agree, and Dwayne Wade is terrible.
Offensive Boards: Det +3
TOs: Det +4 (we have 8!!)
If the Cavs lose by two, I’m gonna remember that Jenkins thing and be very upset.
Kenny Lofton in the house!!
The first quarter turnover binge is a constant, win or lose.
Fugly start, Cavs! Way too frantic. Run an offense!
Nice blockout on the FT, Mobley.
Absolute crap close to that quarter.
Harden & Allen are playing well. Everyone else is iffy.
Didn’t look like much on foul on Jenkins
They really just stopped playing for the last 90 seconds of this quarter.
Yeah,that’s a really disappointing sequence ,no excuse for the careless ball handling and second chances.
Again. Where was the foul?
It is gonna be a Det friendly whistle tonight.
Why not a big on Duren?
We are shooting well but olaying like sh!t.
That foul on Merrill was some bullshit.
Feels like all the whining is paying off
How the F do you double-dribble like that, TWO times?
Schröder ain’t it.
7 TOs. Barf.
GET SCHRODER OFF THE DAMN FLOOR
Agreed.
3 or 4 TOs for him.
If we were cleaner with the ball & better on the glass, we’d be up 15 right now.
Shooting 60/60.
Evan Mobl3y!
Allen!
Got a good roll on a Mitchell 3 and Harden drained one.
Detroit still looks more aggressive and better on the boards. We are shooting better. TOs even-ish.
Wow. The pistons are shook. Cade just blew the bunny of all bunnies. LFG
Spida! Touched it up and in!
Mitchell MIA.
Terrible start.
2 TOs. 4 offensive rebounds given up. Bad transition D.
I love the determination from Mobley.
Start rebounding
Already pissed with the TOs & Orebs.
Lol. That call was comical
Let’s go Cavs!
Boobie Gibson in the house!!
Everyone available for Detroit.
