Sorry Phil, a franchise record 64-18 in '05-'06 didn't help. The push to game 6 in the '08 conference finals with a volatile Shady Wallace, less than 100% Chauncey B-B-B-B-Billups will just not do either.

The Detroit Pistons fired Flip Saunders today just six days after the team bowed out of the conference finals to our beloved Celtics. What is next for the Pistons? God willing - an interview with hometown favorite Isaiah Thomas. That would make my day. Sorry Phil, see you at TNT in the fall.

Labels: Boston Celtics, Chauncy Billups, Detroit Pistons, Eastern Conference Finals, Flip Saunders, franchise, Isaiah Thomas, TNT

If the Celtics plan on advancing to in the Eastern Conference Finals they must win this evening. They continue to tempt fate. Trailing at home? WTF? Detroit is just sitting and waiting and RESTING whilst the Celtics and Cavs beat each other senseless.

This is like the Rocky series. Imagine, at the end of Rocky II if Clubber Lang climbed into the ring immediately. How would that have gone? The Celtics need a little respite. Some time to do a commercial with a tiger if you will.



These two teams split the season series and the time to go for the jugular is now. No need to win by 20, just win. Let themselves get a little rest and momentum if at all possible. I love the Celtics at home in a game 7. Just not in this series. End this tonight and bring on Laimbeer, I mean Billups and Wallace.



Ugh Bill Laimbeer, the horror, the HORROR!
