Cavs Aim to Contain Cade Cunningham in Game 1 vs Pistons
Cleveland faces a strong Pistons defense in Game 1 and plans to reestablish the pick-and-roll to exploit Detroit's drop coverage, attack weaker links and mismatches, knock down three-pointers, win the possession game by controlling rebounds and limiting turnovers, and have Dean Wade guard Cunningham with help from the rest of the defense—Cunningham's performance remains the deciding factor of the series.
