Celtics Beat the Pistons at Home

It's tied at one a piece...that's wassup...BEANTOWN STANDUP!!!

I'll wait till the playoffs till I crown anybody.-Halftime-

Yep. I mean, I'm sick of all this "Celtics champions" stuff. How bout we wait around 100 more damn games? Jeez....

The Celtics are a great team. But like everyone, they are beatable. Look at their games. They always end up squeeking by. Sometimes, by just simply mediocre teams, like the Raptors and stuff. They aren't gods. Otherwise they wouldn't have those 3 L's hangin on their chins.

The Pistons just looked tired in the 4th.

regular season is meaningless at this point for both teams.

They are gonna finish 1 and 2 respectively in their conference.

Playoffs.

The Celtics are beatable sure but they have a +13 differential against opponents, which would set a record for best in NBA history if they keep it up. They usually win games comfortably, not squeaking by. If you're going to fault a team for winning a few of their games by under 10 points now, you're really reaching.

Top 2 teams playing in regular season is important. It determines home field advatage I thought.

Dude, the Celtics do that a lot. At least guys like the Pistons and Spurs are able to beat their mediocre opponents by 10+ points on a regular basis.detroitpistons0

there are 7 games, and it only gives you 1 more home game than the other. It's meaningless in most cases. Actually, depending on how the series goes, the worse team may get more home games.

ugh, I should have been more clear. I meant Boston is gonna be 1 seed and Detroit will be 2. I'm not stupid, I know about home field.

No I fixxed his quote. He typed his post into the quote tunnel.

Pistons had a 9 game winning streak. That gets extremely hard to continue, eventually you are going to lose. I think in the playoffs, Celtics will win in 7 but you never know, it could go either way.F1Lengend

Celtics are on a 9 Game win streak too. They were on a 9 Game streak prior to the last time the Pistons and Celts met before losing to them.

I would say celtics are better at the moomment

but not by much

Its one big toss up right now. They beat eachother on the road. If one of them is able to make a statement at home. that team will have the edge. but for now. only time will tell. But i will say this; the pistons have reached there peak of perfromance. this is as good as its gonna get which is wonderful beacause they they are a great team. But i think the Celtics can still get alot better as the year goes on. Especially if rondo is able to come into his own.patsfan83428

You can't ignore the fact that the Pistons have a 23-8 record and the Celtics have a 29-3 record. That right there to me proves whos the better team.

Fixed it for you.

You too. :)

They have not yet proven they are better due to the fact that they barely won that game. Its tied 1-1 lets see what happens as the year goes on. Before the season i had picked the Celtics to take it all this year but my hometown team the Pistons are really impressing me.zeldafan00013

The same way the Pistons barely beat the Celtics when they played the game at Cletics Home. Still the Pistons have lost more times then the Celtics. That to me shows the Celtics are better.

Acually I think the opposite. The Celtics play full court ball. When they run the ball up they destroy people. Pistons play half court ball. They like a slower pace game where they can set their d up. In a 7 game series the Celtics would wear out the pistons playing their fast pace full court ball. Celtics would win 7 game series against the Pistons in 6 or 7 games. This is ofcourse if they kept the pace to their liking. If the Pistons managed to control the pace and slow it down for their D they would win. But that wouldnt happen.

I don't really know / caremuch about the NBA (not a big fan)or theCeltics, but my buddy had an extra ticket so I went to the Garden tonight to watch 'em. Eesh, wrong night I guess. The pizza and beer made it worth it, I guess.

Yah they looked bad tongiht. Ray Allen and Big Baby benched doesn't help/

Pistons V Celtics when (because it most likely will) it happens in the playoffs will be epic. Regardless of the series score, the games will be close (even if the Pistons or Celtics manage a 4-1 win or something, it'll be close like that Phoenix San An series from a few years back that was close every game but San An pulled through 4-1).

I'd like to add one last thing: the Pistons and Celtics both lost tonight. Celtics clearly should have beaten the Bobcats at home, but lost by a somewhat large sum... this tells me that when even ONE of their big three is out, they have little chance... this isn't a good thing for them... Ray was the least important of the big three and it was still enough of a momentum change that it decided the game... Celtics displayed tonight just how "deep" they are... Pistons displayed tonight that they still fall into the trap of not caring enough and thinking they can turn it on... much like the Lakers team they beat in 04 to elevate themselves to where they hover near now... Celtics need to get deeper, and Pistons need to focus on focus...

We played without allen before and won by a large sum during those few games. Tonight was just an off night for everyone. It was sloppy. They haven't been playing enough. We had to long of a rest.

Wow, the Celtics are crap.UssjTrunks

lol as the Pistons lose ont he same night. Oh NO! 30-4 now!

First of all, good win for the Celtics. And second of all, why doesn't glen davis see more time? It's like Pistons not wanting to play Jason Maxielle.

the bobcats match up pretty well against the celtics, it wouldnt surprise me to see them beat the c's againBeanTownBrown86

Yeah, in the first meeting the game was extremely close as well.

dkhw

Glen Davis does get alot of play time. He is just injured right now. He was averaging 12.4 minutes per game. His m inutes are more sparatic then that leads you to beleive. he will have games with 20+ minutes then not play for 2 games.

The regular season counts for squat. The Mavs have taught us that the last 2 years in a row. :lol:4skins4life

It does count. Regular seasons show who is the competition and home field advantage. If the regular season didnt count for squat they would just have every team play 7 game series play offs with single elimination.
