The Detroit Pistons are sitting top of the Central Division with the Cleveland Cavaliers in second place two games back. I have no doubt that the roles will be reversed shortly though, and I expect a blowout win for the Cavs when the two division rivals clash Monday night. Note that Detroit is in a letdown spot after snapping a two-game skid with a 100-97 win at Minnesota on Sunday. How much gas is left in the tank for this contest?

The Cleveland Cavaliers have finally started to show the grit and desire they missed at the start of the season and enter this game on a four-game winning streak.

My NBA Game of the Week is a 10* play on Cleveland Cavaliers.
