The Pistons were a completely different team the last time they were in Cleveland to face the Cavaliers, one of the teams general manager Troy Weaver mentioned when asked why he traded for 7-foot center James Wiseman.
The decision was made to compete with the most talented front courts in the Eastern Conference, and the Pistons were back in Cleveland on Saturday night for their fourth and final meeting of the season against the Cavaliers.
Despite being without Bojan Bogdanovic, Alec Burks, Isaiah Stewart and Jalen Duren due to injury, the Pistons hung around with the Cavaliers, at least for the first half.
