The Cleveland Cavaliers needed to bounce back.
Dropping three games in a row was a bit demoralizing, but good teams always find ways to respond and win games they should win.
That’s exactly what happened on Monday night when they faced the Detroit Pistons.
Feel good dub.

The Pistons may not have been very competitive in the past, but they’ve definitely improved lately.
Also, you never want the losses to mount or snowball.
If anything, a good team shows that it is a good team by taking care of business.
The Cavs were down one key player, as Dean Wade missed yet another game with a knee injury.
Reports state that he’ll stay out for the time being due to a bone bruise, and there’s no timetable for his return.
Isaac Okoro continues to deal with a shoulder injury and missed the game.
To add insult to injury – literally – Caris LeVert also had to watch from the sidelines as he’s dealing with an injured wrist.
It is also worth noting that the team was able to pull off this win despite being so shorthanded, especially against an up-and-coming team like the Pistons.
The Cavs are now 37-9 for the season and will have a tough stretch ahead of them.
Next, they will face the Miami Heat and Atlanta Hawks, two of the few teams that have beaten them this season.
That will be a tough challenge and a good test for Kenny Atkinson’s troops.
