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!
