The Pistons have a tough defensive assignment in the LeBron James-led Cavaliers, an assignment that is even tougher when they aren't playing their best defense.

Cleveland defeated Detroit 102-84 on Saturday afternoon.

"Defensively, we're just not in sync with each other," Antonio McDyess admitted. "We go to rotate, and there's no one helping. Guys are getting layups. We're just not that sharp on defense as we were years ago."

The Cavaliers shot 52.9% from the field, while James went 13-for-20 in Game 1.
