Description: After years of heartbreak and a fan base conditioned to expect disappointment, the Cleveland Cavaliers pulled off one of the most gut-wrenching, pulse-pounding comebacks in recent memory — erasing a 9-point deficit in the final three minutes to force overtime and steal a road win against the Detroit Pistons. James Harden, widely written off by national media, delivered a masterclass performance on both ends of the floor, reminding everyone exactly why Hall of Fame talent is worth the turbulence that comes with it. Now sitting 3-2 in the series with a chance to close it out at home, the question isn't whether Cleveland can win — it's whether the city's long-suffering fans can finally let themselves believe again.
