Pistons (8-3) at Celtics (10-2) 11/20

Great game, C's have the best help defense in the NBA by a mile, number 18 is coming, this game really made me think we may have a few championships with this squad. Bench was huge, everyone raves about the Fakers bench again, but soon they will realize that they just have 5 guys that all shoot threes. The C's are the best defensive team in the NBA and have an offense that can adapt to any situation, they have three guys that can go for 30 any night, and a bench with players who have a knack for exploding. In case you can't tell, I am pretty high on the C;s right now.

POB trying tonight?  Looks like he's walking through this...

and thus why he's not earning any brownie points with doc.

Are the Celtics that good or are the Pistons that bad?

Both.

Great game! If I was Dice, I'd rethink the C's offer. If he goes back to Detriot they will improve some but they still aren't contenders IMO. I'm just afraid he will go to the Cav's instead, that would make them very tough to beat in a 7 game series.

Was anyone else just amazed at how easy the Celtics made this game look after spotting Detroit a 13-2 lead? It was 96-67 thereafter. That's amazing.

Second game in a row where every player that made it on the floor contributed and was a small factor or more. Just great all around team play.

Kudos go to Doc for rewarding Scal with some meaningful run after playing a good part the last two games. Kudos to the bench who seem to have turned around from that 4 game mini slump. Kudos to Rondo for hitting a three and taking it to the basket and only once attempting to pass off a layup for a pass to his team mates. You have to be aggressive and take those two points every time they give them to you Rajon, much, much, much better decision making tonight.

I'm not sure when the Big Three were such a non factor in back to back wins before? These two wins were about as close to perfect total team wins as I can remember.

Its been a good day. My niece is born at an impressive 10lb. 9oz. and the Celtics absolutely destroy the Pistons.

Good times!

TP, congratulations, she'll be dominating the paint in no time.

Scal hitting a 3 in stride, with confidence, was pretty sweet.

The C's toyed with Detroit again tonight.

Can we start calling Big Baby "Twinkle Toes"!

His footwork does seem eerily familiar at times...

Both.

What was the Lakers excuse for losing to them--at home?

Anybody else like the fact that TA plays so well against one of our biggest rivals in Detroit?

The Lakers are wicked ovah-rated

And they have ugly uniforms 

And they stink like dirty kitty litter

Congratulations! Great news.
May I direct your (and others' as well)
attention to this thread? There must
be more babies on the way and we still
need players for the 2027 team

The Pistons post AI trade are really a bad match up against the C's. PG with Billups, might have been there only real advantage over the C's and now it's gone.
