INTO THE THICK OF IT !!!
May 23, 2008
Last night at the Garden two things happend . One the Celts lost home court advantage to the Pistons, effectivly making it a best of five with Detroit owning the home court advantage, and , second Ray Allen found his shot . Lets put therse things into perspective.
No NBA champion has ever won without taking a game on the opponents court and , the Celts will be no different, if they wish to be Champions they must go to Detroit and take one from the Pistons to bring home court back to Boston , this was a given before the series started and is now a nessesity.
Of more import to this auther is the re emergence of Ray Allens shot. the Celts got by to this point without it , but clearly were not playing upper echelon teams . From this point on the commpetition is as good as we are and we must be firing on all cylinders to win ,
Although the celts did not win against the pistons the game was close even though the Pistons would have put a lesser team down by 20 or more , so why wern't we burried? Ray allen broke out of his scoring slump and went for 25, it was his best performance in three months. But he was limited to 29 minutes by foul trouble, picking up his fifth foul with 3:09 left in the third quarter after his flurry had given Boston the lead.
the Celtics have a good chance at advancing now that Ray allen has re-emerged yes we need to win on the road, but we needed to do that anyway, and it will be much easier to do if Ray is hitting his shots, So onto Detroit we go to bring back home court and challenge Detroit for eastern dominance.
Lets go Celtics your in a real dogfight now .
So show your pride, and bring homecourt back to Boston !!!
