for all the talk about the Cs struggles on the road, there have now been 15 games played in the Conference Semifinals and only ONE of those games has been won by the road team..

so we are not the only team struggling on the road at this point in the playoffs.

game 3 was extremely frustrating for sure....let's hope that the 16th Conf. Semi is win #2 for the road team..

Dude the Celtics are the only team left in the Play-offs that has yet to win 1 road game in the play-offs.  I don't care what the record for everyone else during the 2nd round. I repeat the Celtics are the only team left NOT to one 1 road game.

1-14 is the record of road teams in the Conference Semis...

Ok so what is your point?  I think the biggest stat if your a Celtics fan is 0-4 on the road in the play-offs.  If you want to break it down team by team

Piston are 3-2 on the road
Lakers are 2-2 on the road
Utah is 3-2 on the road
Cleveland is 2-2 on the road
Orlando is 1-2 on the road
San Antonio is 1-2 on the road
New Orleans is 1-2 on the road
Boston is 0-4.

Oh by the way let's say the Celtics go on to win this series with-out winning a road game.  They would face the Piston who have the best road record 3-2 so far in the play-offs.

and we are the only team left in the EC to have no losses at home....

my point is that we can look at these records a lot of ways, but the fact is that it is hard to win on the road in the playoffs and only one team has done so in ONE game so far in the Conf. Semis...

It it a telling stat that the Home team has won the Home games in the NBA..It is like David Stern has the whole thing scripted Home team gets tons more calls, is allowed to play more aggressive without foul calls..Leading to the longest possible Series making the most amount of money for the league..

The NBA has morphed into an entertainment league slightly ahead of the WWF
See, this is why I'm not allowed to announce NBA games -- I'd be talking in the Cookie Monster voice right now:

Ahhhhhhhhhh ... my knee hurts ... ahhhhhhhhhhhhh ... me don't like when my knee hurts ...
