Our Backs to The Wall

[BringToughnessBack]

I could not be happier with our players performance for the majority of the game last night. We looked like a team that could and should win the championship. I am still relishing in the glow of what we did in Detroit!

Backs to the wall seem to be bringing out the beast within our team and that is a really good thing.

5th game vs. ATL- Win following 2 losses
7th Game vs Atl-Win following another road loss
5th Game vs Cle-Win following 2 road losses again
7th Game vs Cle-Win following another road loss
3rd Game vs Pistons after losing home court-Impressive Win

I do not know about anyone else, but when a team that has never played together in the playoffs before can still show the right inner strength to prevail after tough losses, that is a really, really good thing and is truly what Championship Teams are made of. The Celtics of the 80's had it and so far, we are showing it as well.

Monday night should be a very interesting game although are backs are not quite to the wall anymore- It would now be great to see a bit of the cold hearted closer come out in us.
