The Pistons forget the golden rule, don't bring a knife to a gun fight. Celts roll over lackadaisical Pistons 88-79, this despite Joey Crawford's best effort to seek asylum in the upper peninsula with phantom foul calls.

Regarding Ray Allen: Some Folks Know Better
When Dan Shaugnessy takes on a subject, you know the sky is falling. Poor Ray Allen. He's not pistol whipping the competition with his vaunted jump shot, and there is Shaugnessy right there with so many other sports analysts putting pressure on the Celtics shooting guard. The Celtics win Game 1 against Detroit, and the story line is how Ray Allen is stuck in neutral. The reality...
What Is Kevin Garnett Screaming About?
I know it was a rough going in Minnesota, but gosh, is yelling going to make it happen for you, bro? Maybe its to compensate for being so skinny, but dude, that has to wreak havoc on the vocal cords.
Sloppy Play Sinks Boston, 103-97
...we need to take a little swipe at Doc. I know we had some foul trouble tonight, and we need some defensive-minded guards to matchup with Detroit, but I didn't like him playing Tony Allen tonight. Some guys can sit on the bench for 3 weeks, then come in and make a positive impact. Tony Allen isn't one of them. He looked rusty, and worse, he just looked overmatched out...

Celtics Take Game 1, Stay Perfect at Home
The question of rest vs rhythm was answered early. The Celtics came out strong and got off to an 8-0 lead before Billups hit a 3 to stop the run. The Pistons then went on an 8 point run of their own to give the Pistons their first lead at 13-12. The Celtics finished the quarter on a run to grab a 22-17 lead at the end of one. The Pistons shot just 37% in the quarter in part because...
Celtics Keep Rolling At Home, Win 88-79
The scoreboard doesn't reflect it, and you won't see it by looking at the box score, but the Celtics absolutely dominated the Pistons. The Celtics trademark defense disrupted the Pistons all night long, never allowing them to get into any sort of rhythm. KG and Perkins played Rasheed to perfection, holding him to 11 points on 3-12 shooting (with 2 of those field goals...

Celtics Finally Greet Pistons for ECF Showdown
As predicted, the Piston and Celtics are indeed at the top of the Eastern Conference heap. The Pistons didn't really have too much opposition on the road to the finals while the opposite has occurred for teh Celtics. Two nail-biting playoff series against the Hawks and Cavaliers for the C's were physically demanding compared to the Pistons challenges by the 76ers and the...
Can the Celtics win the championship without winning a game on the road
Can the Celtics win the championship without winning a game on the road? I think the Celtics will win the championship, but I think it will be 50% if the Celtics will win the championship without winning a on the road. The Celics are 8-0 this playoffs at home, but the Celics are 0-6 on the road. The Celtics will probably get at least 1 or 2 wins at the road. The Celtics will probably...
