What a game by Pierce too. Damn the guy continues to impress by doing absolutely everything.

They keep raising the ticket prices so lots of corporate seats. Most of the real fans get stuck in the rafters.


I believe it. Sounds like the second round of the playoffs for GSW last year. All the true fans bailed on the tix for the $$$.

Anyone else see Garnett doing the big balls hand motion to Big Baby after that last shot?

Great win by the Celtics !!

Big Baby was HUGE !!!!!

I also have to give Doc credit for his coaching. Tried different things tonight seeing what he can and can not use on Detroit next time. All around good effort.

Hopefully this is an ECF preview, and what a series that would be!

Davis is our secret weapon against the Pistons.

The Pistons big men are athletic, but they simply don't have the bulk to move Davis when he is set up in the paint.

I give Pierce and KG big credit for sharing the ball and feeding Big Baby in the 4th quarter. It feels like I've been waiting 20 years to see this kind of basketball. We've got an amazing team.

The MOST impressive aspect of the win..... NONE of our big three were anywhere CLOSE to being good offensively, but our bench CARRIED us. Baby was majestic, TA was big, House made big shots, so did Posey and a BIG offensive board ...Kudos to the bench... I wonder if those idiots will still say we have 'no bench'....

That's what scares me. We may not have much left for the finals.
