rediculous roll

A fresh Pistons who have't been outplayed the way Boston has in games either.

Pistons will put these bums out in 6.

That free throw was just like Ben's earlier.

:yes:

BOSTON JUST WON THE NBA TITLE. THROW THE BALL IN THE AIR AND JUMP UP AND DOWN EDDIE HOUSE WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I am going to make a prediction. The Pistons will either sweep, or lose 1 game at the most to the Celtics.

Damon Jones is such a douchebag. Had the Cavs had Boobie Gibson, it would have been much better. Damon Jones, the self-proclaimed best shooter in the league, give me a fucking break.

Pierce, she is a woman, not a "man". Fucking piece of shit.

Sooo wait a minute. Game 1 of the East Finals is on Tuesday... but game 1 of the west is on wednesday. mmkay. Longer rest for us.

I really don't think the Pistons are gonna roll the Celtics. Give or take a couple breaks The Magic could have easily extended that series.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Pistons/Celtics goes 7 games to.

Well I think Detriot is going to win game one, being the fresher team and game one only being in 2 days.

And if Detriot steals homecourt Celtics are fucked not being to win on the road, and barely being able to win at home.

Yeah the rest might be the most key thing going into this series.

However Detroit falls asleep all the time. I honestly think it will be easier to win game at Detroit then Clevand just because of the sleepy Detroit factor.

Really fun to watch 2nd half btw.

umm, yeah, you had Clevland in 7, you were wrong you can STFU now and find something to talk about that you know about... may take you awhile to find something.

Would I be shocked to see Detroit win? No, but I'm going Boston in 7.

For the most part they have still played great D during the playoffs.

Have they won on the road? no.

round 1 Did Detroit win in Philly? sure, but they also lost at home to Philly.
and Detroit won 1 road game vs. Orlando and that was by 1 point.

So the whole "can't win on the road" so far doesn't worry me.

Perice seems to have woken up, and has to stay like that against Detroit.

Gonna be a great series.

I think the biggest advantage Detroit has is the extra rest and a younger team. Playing sun - tue - thur - sat, you're going to see these older legs on the Celtics get tired.

Keep playing the same D, Pierce keeps playing like he did today, keep House in there and not Cassell and wouldn't hurt for Ray Allen to remember how to shoot!

lol Sammy you are such a little homo

I find that halarious coming from you, I think you said Utah would beat Lakers in 6 didn't?

for the 2nd time.

NO I DID NOT! - nice try though.

too bad you were too much of a pussy to make a bet on the game.

Don't get upset because it's taken Boston 7 games to beat the 8 seed and then 7 games to beat the one man show that is LeBron James.

upset? cause once again you were wrong... not at all...

upset that my teams in the conference finals? not upset at all.

but whatever makes you feel better about running your mouth w/o a clue and being wrong as usual.

Yes, without a clue, as if you have one youself.

I made a prediction, I was wrong. Alot of people had Cleveland, and it isn't like Boston destroyed Clevland in 4 or 5 games. It was 7 games, and the 7th was close.

However you choose to ignore the fact that your team struggled against an 8th seed and than a one man team. Detriot is a legit contender who can win away, where as Boston who hasn't won away yet in the playoffs, unlike the remaining teams. I'd be worried If I were a Boston fan.

Im with IC on this one, the Celts have no chance getting passed the Pistons. Pistons/Lakers finals.

LOL @ Lakers automatically in the finals

They havent played anyone tough yet.

Denver? LOLLLLLL

Utah? They choke all the time.

Reading some other message boards and people are trying to say its LeBron's "fault" lol give me a break, nobody else could do shit for the Cavs offensively. Delonte was the only one who really did anything at all and he missed some big shots himself. Really don't see how you can blame a guy who dropped 45 points on the road in Game 7 and consistently set up shots for his teammates, only to have them miss. Not to mention the Cavs where playing 4 on 5 the entire team on offense since Ben Wallace has no offensive game what-so-ever. Anyone see when he caught the ball in the post with his back to the basket and nobody behind him? He could have just turned around took one dribble and dunked it instead he passed it away in like .02 seconds lol

As for the Pistons destorying the Celtics because the Celtics struggled with a one man team, pretty sure the Pistons lost to the "one man team" last year so I dunno. Plus the Sixers went into Detriot and won a game, so we'll see what happens here. Everyone thinks they are Miss Cleo or something

50 win teams top through bottom in the west and youre saying we havent played anyone tough? Yea...

I was thinking the EXACT same thing! As a matter of fact, i believe they were down by one at that time, which if his ass wasnt so afraid, he could have done exactly what you said and possibly changes the tide.

Philly was one of the hottest teams going into the playoffs though, Stimes.

I'm worried, but they still have a good chance against Detroit, it will go 6 or 7.

What I find funny isn't that you were wrong (which you usually are, you actually are starting to make RP look good on predictions) it's how arrogent about it you were and ended up wrong.

You can call the bums or whatever else you want but the fact remains they were the best team in the league during the regular season and their one of the best 2 eastern teams in the playoffs.

So, keep knocking them, your jealousy is understood.

by the way, what team do you root for?

Wait.... I thought "The playoffs are different then the regular season" wasn't that your cry? but now "Philly was hot going into the playoffs"... which is it? Does the regular season matter or not?

Also, as it's been pointed out, Detroit lost to the "1 man team" last year and they did lose at home to Philly, so Boston hasn't won on the road, but they haven't lost at home either.

Celtics in 7 but it will be a battle.

LOL, I was wrong about a prediction. I also predicted Lakers would take it in 6.

You're talking about last year with Detriot when you're team only compiled 24 wins and missed the play-offs. That was a year ago, I know that's my point. And you're team came rather close to going down to LeBron this year.

Call me arrogant all you like, I'm just stating facts. I would expect the best team in the league to easily defeat a team that wasn't even .500. and than in the next round have the series go 7 games and come down to the final minute. No 1 seed that had to go 7 to win in the first round has ever gone on to win the championship.

Come on, you really think Boston can beat whoever comes out west be it Lakers, Spurs, or Hornets? You really think so?

And for someone who is borderline brain dead to say I'm always wrong is pretty funny.

Lake Show/Pistons

Pierce may have come alive, but you also have to remember, Tayshaun Prince will be guarding him now

I think this will go 7. Hard to say who will get it between Det and Boston.

One of the key factors is the big 3 at each only have 1 Conf Title game appearence.(Pierce with the Celtics in 02, Allen with the Bucks in 01, KG with the T-Wolves in 04) The current Pistons nucleus has been to 5 straight Conf Title Games. (6 current streak but the star players arrived or gotten good like Prince in 04) Including going on to winning a title and losing another in a Game 7.

oooh... borderline brain dead... I suppose if I was wrong like you I'd go with the insults to try and prove my point (no, actually I wouldn't) but whatever helps you sleep at night.

for whatever reason you don't like the Celtics (which is fine) but you keep trying to change your argument "the regular season doesn't matter" and then "Philly was hot at the end of the regular season".

What it comes down to is they beat Atlanta and they beat Clevland and they have a chance to beat anyone, any team does.

Detroit will go 6 or 7, if it's 6 detroit wins if it's 7 the Celtics win.

I don't have the confidence against Detroit that I did against Clevland.

but whatever, can't wait till tuesday night and to get this started!

that's a very big factor, Detroit has been here before and as a team, where for most these guys this is their first year together on the Celtics.

YES. I think they were in the triangle or something and when the ball went down to Wallace he immidiatley threw it to Lebron. I think he had Posey gaurding him like 4 feet away.

But what did you expect? Everyone knows Ben has no offensive game. Even he knows it which is why he looked to pass first. All it took was an aggresive move to the basket to draw at least a foul. But when he kicked it out and Lebron missed the shot I figured "meh, they got what they payed for.One defensive minded player to help them get to the finals. Glad it worked out for them"

not getting cocky about this, but the more I look at the matchup the more I like it.

it's two very similar teams, tough defense the one thing Detroit lacks is the "big scorer" there isn't a Lebron type player that will explode for 40pts.

Damn, game 7 tonight. Pick your poison, I guess.

They also have the best back court in basketball and a solid bench. Detriot can also play defence and score.
