Cleveland's star rookie had 23 points and nine assists, and Carlos Boozer scored a career-high 28 points as Cleveland finally won on national television, 95-86 over the Detroit Pistons on Thursday night Cleveland has won just two of 11, but this was a victory that the Cavaliers may one day look back at as the night they became James' team. The No. 1 overall pick has been reluctant to take on a leadership role, but with 22 games now under his belt, James thinks it may be time for him to start showing the way. "I haven't made myself the complete leader of this team," he said. But he certainly took a big step. Cleveland also snapped an eight-game losing streak to Detroit. The Cavs hadn't beaten the Pistons since Dec. 4, 2001. The win was also Cleveland's first over a team with a winning record since the Cavs defeated New Orleans last April 5. Ricky Davis, whose name continually pops up in trade rumors, had 15 points, nine rebounds and five assists. Davis also had a vicious dunk, cutting through four Pistons in the fourth quarter to throw one down as the Cavs were putting it away. Richard Hamilton, who scored a career-high 44 points in a win over Cleveland on Nov. 28, led the Pistons with 19 points but was bottled up by the Cavs. </div> Recap Box Score Pistons are playing some terrible basketball lately.The past two games (No disrespect to Sixers or Cavs) but both should of been easy wins.More so the Sixers game when they were without Iverson,Robinson and Jackson. Home to the Seattle Supersonics tonight.
Pistons win easy? The last few years all this team does is grind out tough wins. The last few games they have just looked, tired.
