The Cleveland Cavaliers (26 - 20) defeated the Detroit Pistons (17 - 29) 103 - 95 on Tuesday at the Palace of Auburn Hills. Despite securing the victory, the Cavliers were out - shot in this matchup. The Pistons went 42 percent from the field and 33 percent from the three - point line, while the Cavaliers went 42 percent from the field and just 27 percent from beyond the arc. The Cavaliers were also out - rebounded 51 - 47 by the Pistons. Where the Cavaliers gained the advantage though was in turnovers, as they forced the Pistons into 18 turnovers, while committing only nine of their own. It was just enough of an advantage, that it may have been the difference that pushed them to a win. Kyrie Irving and LeBron James were unstoppable Tuesday, combining for 70 of the Cavaliers' 103 total points. Irving led the team with 38 points (13 - 23 FG, 6 - 10 3Pt, 6 - 6 FT), while also adding six assists and three steals. He's now combined for 59 points over his last two games, as he's been a big part in the Cavaliers' seven - game win streak. James on the other hand finished with 32 points (11 - 24 FG, 0 - 4 3Pt, 10 - 11 FT), six rebounds and seven assists. He's been on an absolute tear lately, averaging 30 points during their last seven wins. While James and Irving had huge outings, the third member of the big three, Kevin Love, did n't have his best game. He struggled with his shot, scoring only seven points (3 - 11 FG, 1 - 8 3Pt), but did at least add eight rebounds as well. Starting at point guard, D.J. Augustin was the a big reason the Pistons were able to keep this game close. Augustin nearly double - doubled, finishing with 19 points (8 - 15 FG, 3 - 6 3Pt), nine assists and two steals. In the two games since Brandon Jennings went down with a season - ending injury, Augustin has combined for 54 points and 17 assists. Both Greg Monroe and Andre Drummond had strong showings as well, with each notching a double - double of their own. Monroe had 17 points (7 - 15 FG, 3 - 3 FT) and 12 rebounds, while Drummond had 12 points (6 - 17 FG, 0 - 4 FT), 17 rebounds and six blocked shots. The six blocks were a new season - high for Drummond, as he dominated the paint Tuesday. Coming off the bench, Anthony Tolliver shot really well, scoring 16 points (4 - 5 FG, 3 - 4 3Pt, 5 - 5 FT) in 29 minutes. He's now reached double figures in scoring during two out of his last three games, despite averaging only 5 points per game this season. The Cavaliers' next game will be at home against the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday, while the Pistons will travel to Philadelphia to play the 76ers on Wednesday.
