Richard Hamilton scored 27 points and Rodney Stuckey added 24 points and 11 assists to help the Detroit Pistons beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 102-92 on Sunday night.

Both teams came into the game off embarrassing performances. Cleveland lost its last two games by a combined 62 points, including the highly anticipated return of LeBron James. Meanwhile, the Pistons were beaten at home by an Orlando team missing Dwight Howard, Jameer Nelson and two other key players because of the flu.
