Jack, truthfully Ill have to vote for the C's just because. But If i wasnt a fan of either Id be betting on Detroit. But never bet against the B's-C's-Sox or Fins in the playoffs, just cant do it. But im suprised a bit at the line, thought it would be almost -110 -110.

Im hoping Billups is a step slow cause Rondo, as most do let alone a 22 yr old. Allen will obv have to step up and make shots. Should be a good one.

obv Boston hatred clouding your judgement once again.


saying the same thing that Hus said though. Biased will have me taking BOS in 7, head says Detroit wins because Boston has not shown the killer instinct and Detroit has been here to many times before in the recent past

boston cant win on the road, the pistons are just better. they've now gone 7 games with 2 subpar teams, classic choke artists and now they're going against the more experienced/winner in Detroit...game over

classic choke artists? what are you basing this off of? They may have gone to game 7's but the goal is to win. until they lose....choke and celtics should not be used.

if detroit sweeps them or wins in 5-6, then we can talk...

and I believe they do have more home games than road games AGAIN this series

playoff chokes...ray allen and kevin garnett. when the stakes get bigger they seem to perform less...ie minnesota and seattle/milwaukee...just dont get it done
