BOSTON (AP)—Home wins are no longer good enough for the Boston Celtics. The road to the NBA finals in the Eastern Conference now goes through Detroit.

 

Richard Hamilton bounced back from a poor series opener with 25 points, and the Pistons beat Boston 103-97 Thursday night, tying the conference finals at one game apiece and seizing the home-court advantage that has meant everything to the Celtics.

Pistons lost last night 94-80. I hope they take out the Celtics but more than likely it will be Boston and LA in the finals.

I can't say that, since hell has basically frozen over in this series twice. This is anybody's, and don't forget Detroit has a history of going down and then coming back to win it.

 

And they also have a history of going down and staying down. The Cavs winning 4 straight after dropping the first two to the Pistons last year in the ECF comes to mind.

 

How is it that it's hell freezing over for the Pistons? They have a long and proud history of blowing home games.

 

Actually, I'm pretty p!ssed now, 'cause if someone, anyone, outside of LBJ and Delonte West shows up in Game 7 against the Celtics, I think the Cavs make it to the Finals again. Detroit looks as lethargic as ever.

 

Anyway, aren't the Pistons in Michigan? UrbanMichigan.com   needs all the help it can get.  :-D
