NBA Tournament: Cavs Beat Pistons in OT

    It came down to OT. After tying at 123, both teams realized it was going to take extra effort to notch a W. James Harden would play a role. The veteran "beard" scored 30 points to help the team pull out a win. Initially, it seemed that Detroit would walk away with a win, running up a 16 point lead early on. The the Cavs weren't about to give up. Steady defense kept the Pistons frozen at times as the Cvas pressured the defense with aggressive inside moves and the occasional 3-pointer.

    At the end of regulation, the Cavs had the last shot but lost the ball and forced overtime.  In no time, the Cavs took the lead, and Detroit played catchup for the last few minutes, never able to overcome a tight defense. 

   The Cavs now have a 3-2 lead and need just one more victory to go on.
