Game 1: Detroit @ Boston.

[celtsox34x]

Ok so now we have gone the distance twice in two rounds. So what comes with that, nothing. No respect and no trust and no faith. Everyone claims Detroit is great but i dont see it. The guys broke down the matchups on sports tonight and i like what i saw. Regardless Ray Allen is still a great and he will get some shots and they will start to fall. I keep my faith and will untill the season is over holding a trophy or not.:bozo:

I am with you celtsox. I am keeping the faith and expect the C's to win it all. However, I do think the Pistons are a tough match up. When they had to play great against the Magic they did. They are experienced playing as a unit.

I can't help but be concerned about Ray. He has been great but he really needs to get it together for this round. As I've said before, it is not his shooting I am concerned about. Other aspects of his game are suffering.

I am a huge fan of those guys who block shots...especially in these days of poor officiating. Prince is one of the best at blocking shots.

I am very excited for this series.

No way Allen is going to destroy tonight. He will be unstopable. Boston wins this game 101 to 92

I cannot believe that the Lakers are leading this poll with 45% of the vote. The Celtics are a distance second with 24% of the vote. That is just crazy.

I hope you are right about Allen. I like the guy...like his game. I want to see him have a big game.

This was a big first game victory!!!! I cannot wait until Thursday night.

Not to dump on Allen but I still have visions of that 3-pointer that didn't even make the basket.
