Umm yeah they do. I'm not discrediting Cleveland, but in crunch time, I don't see Detroit losing at home in Game 7.
Who would have also thought, in crunch time, that the Pistons would lose a 2-0 series lead?
Because:
A. It wasn't crunch time. Neither team were facing elimination at that point.
B. Detroit underestimated Cleveland in the last few games, hell as Ripper might say, even going back to Game 1. If they still lose, it'd be in Cleveland. In Detroit, the pressure is on BOTH teams, but moreso on Cleveland because they are the road team, and assuming there is Game 7, that meant Detroit won Game 6 and would have the momentum.
THAT is crunch time.
