OT-Boston@Detroit

Post #1 » by **suckfish** » Sun Jan 6, 2008 1:11 am

I take it like me you will all be watching the bulls even though the majority of us probably would prefer to watch these two Eastern powerhouses matchup.

Anyway had time to catch the first quarter and Detroit are just solid. Leading by 10 holding Boston to 12 first quarter points, Rondo has a huge target on his jersey with Billups looking to exploit him.

Should be a great game for those who are going to try and catch bits and pieces during the bulls game.

Go Detroit?

Wish this was on national television. So much more entertaining than Bulls/Queens.

I wish I could watch this game, it's not covered nationally so I don't think I get it since I have basic cable. Of course I'd rather watch the Bulls no matter what though, I'm such a loyal fanboy.

I wouldn't normally root for Detroit but I think there's more a chance of Boston getting close to the Bulls 72-10 record than our current Bulls catching Detroit in the standings.

The Pistons defense is just awesome.

Can't any of you guys catch it online? Out of choice I'll still be watching the bulls though.

Maxiell and Garnett having a good chat.

I'll be watching the Bulls game. I don't care for much of the NBA, if at all, outside of the Bulls, a good playoff game or a game that is close at the end.

Here I am... Thanks !

Actually, Detroit made the run when KG was sitting with 2 fouls... They are coming back now.

So far I am quite empressed by Maxiell, he brings so much energy ! This guy make me think about Tyrus and Noah...

And Rondo is strugling with his shoot... The celtics need Payton ... :roll:

I tried to watch the beginning of it but it's the Boston feed on LP and I'd rather dip my head into a vat of boiling urine than listen to a homer in a Boston accent whine about every call.

How good is Big Baby at finishing? 6ft9 and he is continuing to finish with the trees. 12 points in 10 minutes...

He is incredible ! He is winning the game right now...

And one for him again !

Jim · Post #13 » by **Jim** » Sun Jan 6, 2008 3:09 am

Woah Davis... the rebound over 3 pistons and 2 points + the foul !

Boston win this one... No OT ! :wink:

They won't go 72-10. No way in hell it happens.

what makes you so sure? Boston is 29-3. They are only 12 wins away from matching the 41-3 the Bulls had at that time. Everyone said they would lose 1 or 2 on their recent West trip, but they beat all of them. Celtics are for real and they have a legitimate shot at beating the record. I'm not saying it's going to happen but it might.

Well I kind of hate Detroit, but I still respect them more than Boston for what they have accomplished the last half dozen years or so. Celt fans are going to be even more insufferable now.

I was rooting for Detroit.

I only watched the first and fourth quarters though.
