Detroit Pistons 79, Cleveland Cavaliers 76
The Pistons fell behind 50-38 in the first half but they came alive in the 2nd half and outscored Cleveland 41-26 to win the game. Rasheed Wallace played an outstanding game as he scored 16 points, grabbed 11 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocked shots. Wallace also hit the eventual game-winning shot which was an off balance shot along the baseline. Jason Maxiell was a monster off of the bench with 15 points and 6 rebounds in only 22 minutes on the floor. Richard Hamilton had a bad shooting night (5 of 14) but he still finished with 13 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists. Chauncey Billups had a decent game with 13 points and 6 assists. Chris Webber had a bad shooting night (4 of 13) and he finished with 9 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists. Tayshaun Prince did a good job of defending LeBron James, but he had a hard time with his offense. Prince was 0 for 8 from the floor and he finished with only 1 point, 4 rebounds and 4 assists. The Pistons are now up 2-0 in this series as it shifts back to Cleveland.
