Pivotal Game 4 Tonight for Celtics and Pistons
May 26, 2008 | 8:11AM | report this

Tonight’s game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals is an extremely pivotal game for both teams. They have both shown that they can win on the road in this series, Detroit pulling off Game 2 and Boston doing likewise in Game 3.

The situation may be this: If Boston wins, this is most likely gonna be a 5-game series. However, if Detroit wins, this could just as easily turn into a 7-game series. Ya never know what exactly is gonna happen. That’s why you gotta watch this, tonight at 8:00 on ESPN.

The Pistons need to get one man unparticular involved early: Rodney Stuckey. They say he’s a carbon copy of Chauncey Billups, and if that’s true, it would be nice to have two of them on the same floor at once now, wouldn’t it? That’s the key for Detroit; get Stuckey into it early.

The key for Boston has to be as simple as this: Get the ball to Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett. Ray Allen has been way too inconsistent for me to trust him in this big o####ame. He scored (in order of games) 9, 25, and 11. I don't know what to expect from him. However, in this series, KG averages 24 points per game, and Pierce averages 19.7 points per game. If you ask me, that’s the recipe for success to focus on. Rondo averages 11 ppg, which isn't bad against Billups.

I think Detroit will win Game 4, but not by much, by the skin of their teeth, to be more specific. Detroit-88, Boston-84.

That chant is nothing but pure annoyance.

You have NO right to complain what with your "Terrible Towel." One of the worst traditions in all of sports.

It sounds like you're still sore from the beatdown the Pistons put on the Magic.

The Terrible Towel is a symbol of Pittsburgh Sports, the unofficial flag of the Burgh. If a towel can annoy you, you need to be checked out. That rant you guys do is sheer aggravation.

I'm sore from all of the blatant cheap shots and cheating you guys got away with. 0rlando will be back, and will be ready.

Take care!

You have your symbol, we have ours.

Please name me one of those "cheap shots" or one example of cheating.

Did you watch the series? If you had, Pistons fan or not, you would have seen Detroit repeatedly knock down Hedo Turkoglu, and run into him. When he fell in Game 2, he really could have hurt his leg, and the Piston running right into him inside the circle didn't help his chances.

At the end of the 3rd quarter in Game 2, the infamous "Fatal Call" happened. The one when the clock never started, remember? I actually should say it started, which it did, but not only 5 seconds late, but it took only 0.3 seconds off the clock. That pla, in which Chauncey hit a 3-pointer, killed all the momentum the Magic had been building up that entire 3rd quarter, thus the "Fatal call"

It would have been closer had we had a fair chance.

So the Pistons play basketball the way it was meant to be. Maybe Hedo Turkoglu should man up and be prepared for physical play. And I don't see how the Pistons had anything to do with the "fatal call" (extremely stupid term by the way, so bad it does not deserve to be capitalized), the players don't start the clock.

No, but the closet Pistons fan up in the booth does. If you ask me, that's pretty cheap.

Hedo manned up all year! The Pistons play basketball by trying to injure superstars! That's how the game was meant to be played? Cheaply, and unfairly?

The timeskeeper is not "the closest Pistons fan up in the booth". Hedo is not at all a superstar, and the Pistons don't play cheaply, nor do they play unfairly. If you knew anything about basketball, you would know that the Pistons are not a dirty team, they just play good defense. Simply because you've never seen defense like that from the Magic doesn't mean you have to cheat to acheive it. It sounds to me like your still a little butt-hurt from when the Pistons bent the Magic over and #### them.

How'd you like our 19 point win yesterday? If the referees had called it fairly the Pistons would have won by even more.
