OT: Am i the only one that thinks the celtics don't have it?

[Dexmor]

According to records every championship team in history has had to win at least 3 road games to the ring.

I'm a Detroit fan and I agree with the tone of this thread - Boston isn't playing like an elite team right now. I'm sure they would be a formidable opponent in a 7 game series, but I'm liking Detroit's chances against them. Detroit has also won in Boston this year.

And for a Lakers-Pistons matchup, I'd love it cause I'd come down from Santa Cruz and catch a game. And we are more than a jump shooting team, but you can find that out when we play

I'm with EE on this one. Last I checked Celts have home court throughout, they don't need to win on the road.

While I would normally agree that a team incapable of winning on the road has no shot at winning a title, the Celts may just be the exception to the rule in this case (mainly b/c they are just so dominant at home).

I am salivating at the chance of the Lakers meeting Boston in the Finals.

Boston is 0-6 on the Road right now, so in the Finals, if the Lakers can steal one of the first two games in Boston, then head back to LA for the next three, they could finish them off at Staples....

Detroit could get a game at Boston so it makes it pretty interesting and yeah King James is capable of going bonkers and winning a game by himself.

I still don't want to play them. They match up against us really well. If I had to choose who I wanted to play in the finals it would go like this in order of preference:

1 Cavs
2 Detroit
3 Boston

I'm positive we could beat cleveland and detroit. But boston will be tough without bynum.
