The stakes are high, And Boston fans ask for one simple favor. WIN! A 66-16 season followed by a game 7 win against the 8 seed Atlanta hawks. The Celtics inability to win on the road makes Celtic Fans wonder.
Why is it that the Celtics can’t win at home?
If they can’t win against the hawks, how are they supposed to beat Lebron and the Cavilers and especially the Detroit Pistons who arguably have the best team and most consistent team in the eastern conference?
The pistons, who have won 3 on the road, Have been without “Mr. Big shot” Chauncy Billups. But the pistons put away the Orlando Magic in 5 games last night and have plenty of rest considering the Celtics and Cavs go into game 7.
The playoffs rest on the Rasheed Wallace, Why you ask? Because many people believe that if Kevin Garnett gets stopped, the fate of the Celtics relies on Paul Pierce and Ray Allen.
Ray Allen is a great shooter outside but if you ask him to take over; he is just not your guy, and Paul Pierce is the same way. He may take over a game, but if asked to take over a series, the odds just do not look good for the Celtics.
Now over to Detroit. Rasheed will be the man to shut down Garnet. His emotions get the best of him, but I strongly believe if he steps up, the pistons will be on there way to another NBA championship series.
Chauncy Billups gives you much more offence and defense compared to Rajuan Rondo.
And Richard Hamilton, Is one of the greatest while moving without the ball. He runs off screens and makes him self available and is a force beyond the arch. The pistons ability to win on the road and for people to step up every single night, All 5 guys contributing every night and making sure no one gets easy buckets. Watch out for these pistons!
But I am still taking the Lakers over everyone. When asked to go into The Palace at Auburn Hills and win games, The task is to strong for this inconsistent Boston team.
Feel free to comment after the game tonight We can discuss what Boston did right and what they need to work on.

Everything was bunched together in one big paragraph. It reads much better now. Quite a few punctuation and grammatical mistakes, you might want to make a second run through.

Have to admit, the Celtics are the biggest disappointment this playoff, despite them still being in it.

"Why is it that the Celtics can’t win at home?" - Chris Conrad
What in the hell are you talking about? The Celtics are now 7-0 at home in the playoffs. At first I thought you just typed "at home" instead of "on the road" but you started making points about how good the Pistons are on the road. The Celtics have only won at home and I have a feeling will pick up that elusive first road win in Game 6. Book it.

I never said that they will not loose at home
I simply said they have trouble winning on the road
A lot of teams have trouble on the road
ask the lakers or spurs just how much fun playing on the road is
Dont get mad
I was just stating an opinion

It says clear as day in your article "Why is it that the Celtics can't win at HOME". That doesn't mean anything about winning on the road. You need to read what you write. I'm not getting mad, just bewildered that you would say that and makes points in favor of it. The Celtics can only win at home. If you're curious as to what I'm talkinga bout it's the first sentence of the article that is isolated after the very first paragraph. I can't believe I'm the only one that said anything about it so far.

Marcus is right, you make sense, but you have got your argument backwards.
The Celtics stink on the road, not at home

Paul Pierce
