    Shaping up to be an epic series. Home court advantage may finally be a non-factor in this series.
    Oh, and GO WINGS!!!

    I think you might be a little premature in doubting your guys JIF. Looked like Chauncy reinjured his hammy last night. Those can be nagging injuries.

    I predicted before the season started that KG would, like ARod, put up great numbers but would come up short and not have a ring. He's a great player of that their is no argument, but I doubt he'll ever win a ring.

    Garnett can play for any team that I'm coaching.

    Impressive win for the Celts tonight. I guess with the Tigers winning by 16 runs and the Wings winning 4-0 something had to go wrong. Like I wrote earlier, this could be an epic series.

    Can't get a handle on this one. Road team has won half the games so far. Game 5 winner sure will be in the catbird seat.

    The Pistons look out of it, and come within a play or so of overcoming a 15 point 4th quarter deficit, this series has a great chance of going 7 games.

    Best game of the series so far. Why the hell do they insist on scheduling the Red Wing and Piston games against each other? Guess that they've decided to come up with the smallest ratings possible.

    Well if you call reeling in all the cash that is flowing in, over, around, and under the Oil companies and their associated businesses ...then yes we work.

    Someday, water may be a traded commodity. When it does, beleive me, Texans will have to pay the most. :D

    Even if it ended in 6 games this was a good series between two good teams. Boston back to the Championship after 21 years! I didn't realize it had been that long.

    Heckuva game. I normally don't watch entire NBA games, but I stayed with this one. Great game by the Pistons but the Celtics simply refused to lose.
