It\u2019s only the fourth time in NBA history that both teams are playing consecutive Game 7s.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Furthermore, the Pistons have played four elimination games and they\u2019re unbeaten \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/playoffs\/2026\/east-first-round-1\">three against the Orlando Magic<\/a> in a stirring comeback, and then <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/game\/det-vs-cle-0042500206\">Friday in Cleveland<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">It\u2019s a long worded way of saying the Cavs and Pistons have been through the fire this spring and then some.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">\u201cWe understand the moment,\u201d said Pistons coach J.B. Bickerstaff. \u201cWe\u2019ve been through it before.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">The winner Sunday will have the exhausting chore of playing two nights later against the New York Knicks and then every other night <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/playoffs\/2026\/east-final\">in the Eastern Conference Finals<\/a> \u2014 no rest for the battle-weary. And that\u2019s an inconvenience the winner will gladly accept, because it beats the alternative.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">This will be a defining game to a degree for Cade Cunningham, Donovan Mitchell and James Harden, each of whom are in different stages of their careers. Cunningham is just getting started as a premier player. Mitchell looks to reach the conference finals for the first time ever. And Harden, a former MVP, can\u2019t give himself a chance to return to the NBA Finals for the first time since 2012 without winning this game first.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">\u201cEverything you want is on the other side of hard,\u201d said Mitchell. \u201cNothing good comes easy.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Here\u2019s what to look for in this winner-take-all matchup (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/game\/cle-vs-det-0042500207\"><strong>8 ET, Prime Video<\/strong><\/a>):<\/span><\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h3>1. What to expect from the stars<\/h3>\n<p class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">It\u2019s always tricky to judge players on past performance in elimination games because context isn\u2019t taken into account. For example, Harden is averaging over 22 points for his career in these situations, but how many of his best outings came during his peak years to inflate those career numbers?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Maybe the proper option is to take what each did a few weeks ago in the first round. That gives a more accurate guess as to what could come Sunday night.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>Cunningham vs. Magic<\/strong>. He was tremendous in three straight elimination games with a 45-pointer followed by a pair of 32-pointers. This stretch was Cunningham\u2019s signature moment as a pro. He shot 11-for-18 on 3-pointers in those games.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>Jalen Duren vs. Magic<\/strong>. His Game 7 was his finest playoff performance until Game 6 vs. Cleveland, with 15 points, 15 rebounds and a steal. In three elimination games in the first round, he shot 13-for-21.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>Mitchell vs. Raptors<\/strong>. He wasn\u2019t next-level in that series and same went for the seventh game. Mitchell\u2019s 22 points were good enough; however that game was played in Cleveland.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>Harden vs. Raptors<\/strong>. Harden managed to get to the free throw line 13 times and limit his turnovers to a pair in that final game. He has since been buried by turnovers, averaging five per game in this semifinal series but has taken 24 free throws in the last two games. <\/span>\u201cHe has an unbelievable ability to manipulate what the rules are,\u201d said Bickerstaff, regarding the frequent whistles.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr\/>\n<h3>2. Cade\u2019s gas tanks<\/h3>\n<p class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Another seven-game series? Remember, this is a player coming off a collapsed lung prior to the playoffs. And now he needs to cope with a 14th game since these playoffs began.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Whether he has enough energy in the fourth quarter, assuming it\u2019s a tight contest, could decide what happens to the Pistons. Cunningham is coming off games of 48 and 42 minutes with just a pair of rest days in between. And he wasn\u2019t at his best in the latter stages of Game 6; the bench bailed him out.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">If only he could thrive off emotion and competitive desire, he\u2019d be fine, but it requires more than that. His stamina will be worth watching, and also whether the Cavs wisely change their defensive strategy for the fourth quarter, force him to labor, take the ball from his hands and let someone else try to be the hero.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h3>3. Unsung hero candidates. Here they are:<\/h3>\n<p class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>Jarrett Allen, Cavs<\/strong>. Aside from standing out over a few significant stretches, his play has been muted, partly because he scores mainly off Harden passes and Harden has been mistake prone. Anyway, Allen can be impactful with blocked shots and rebounds. He needs to thwart the potential of another strong Duren response.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>Max Strus, Cavs<\/strong>. His series has been hot and cold. The Pistons, namely Cunningham and Tobias Harris, have hunted him defensively on switches. Yet Strus in a few occasions burned Detroit with 3-pointers. His fire has been a welcome and consistent sight for the Cavs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>Duncan Robinson, Pistons<\/strong>. He <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/news\/duncan-robinson-out-sore-back\">missed a game due to lower back soreness<\/a> and didn\u2019t start upon his return in Game 6. But he\u2019s the last player the Cavs can afford to leave open at the 3-point arc. Robinson can trigger scoring runs with timely shots from that distance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Body\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>Daniss Jenkins, Pistons<\/strong>. He has been a problem for Cleveland the last two games as a change of pace point guard. He\u2019s not intimidated by the moment, rare for a second-year player who went undrafted, and obviously has the full confidence of Bickerstaff, who elevated him to starter for Game 6 in Cleveland. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>* * *<\/p>\n<p><em>Shaun Powell has covered the NBA since 1985.
