Might be that since the Cs are not playoff tested, better to face them than the Pistons. . .
Boston's guys still have doubts and uncertainty and this loss yesterday shook them, Joe_Wiz. They might be the #1 threat as you say. I don't know.
Though I would not give us even odds to beat Detroit, particularly given that they would have home court, I wouldn't say they scare me. I had been thinking that Boston is the bigger threat of the two, but I have to say that this last win against Boston has affected my thinking. The fact that they played their big 3 significant minutes, the looks on their faces as they were losing, and the fact that Gilbert is just getting going make me very optimistic.
Any way you cut it, Boston and Detroit (in either order) are threats 1A and 1B, and we'll probably have to go through both of them if we're gonna get to the finals.
