The Cleveland Cavaliers have played at the least up-tempo pace-of-play in the NBA this year.The Cleveland Cavaliers rank as the 2nd-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 5 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate extra opportunities for scoring and assists).The Pistons have given up the 5th-least offensive rebounds per game (11.8) in the league to opposing teams over the last 10 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore lead to fewer chances for scoring and assists).Dean Wade has sunk just 60.5% of his free throws this season, significantly lower than his 72.1 mark last season.The matchup vs. the Pistons may be a tough one for getting to the foul line; opposing teams have attempted a measly 26.5 foul shots per game over the last 25 games when the Pistons are on the road (least in the league).
