GAME OVER!!!

See ya in the D!!!

 

[MVP]

Coaches in the NBA take note: this is how you defend when up 3 at the end of the game

 

[mez 0ne]

Man...the C's have gotten lucky, and tonight was no exception.

Guess we're in for another 7 game series...ugh.

 

[finnns2003]

phewww, c'mon c's this was way too close

I only like him when he isn't playing the Celtics

you cannot win playoffs series like this.
you have to play a complete game .

 

[cragmatic]

Damnit.....

 

[feelmode]

wow, although the Ce;tics ended up winning, that sure wasnt convincing. If they go back to the D and loose, game 7 definitely isnt a given.

[MVP]

C's are on some

status, they lack mental toughness to close out opponents, not a good look if they end up winning this series.

Stuckey's 1 mistake was the biggest mistake. Damn

That's what I'm saying.

I have no doubt Pistons will force a Game 7....C's look lost out there when teams make their runs late in the game and play tough defense.

 

[the pga tour]

Whew. That got waayyyy too close. The Celt's need to learn how to close out games better.

Only one win away from going to the Finals!

 

[wallyhopp]

celtics LAKERS>.. yes.

better than the spurs/pistons crap.

but if it goes 7, the Cs got the refs in their corner - that should be comforting enough.

 

[superblytrife]

Bah. Even though Boston won, I still gotta pull their card and say they're not all they're cracked up to be. How do you let Detroit eek back into thisgame?

I still will give them props on the win, because when it mattered Allen hit a huge shot, as well as FTs. But damn....Boston got L-U-C-K-Y tonight.

Either way, I fully expect a Game 7 back in the Garden.

That's hilarious since they just closed out the Pistons in this game. Yeah they shouldn't have let them back in the game but a weaker team wouldhave lost the game.

 

[sooperhooper]

Celts are immensely talented, but seem like players rely on their teammates too much.

 

[crank lucas]

doc closed that game to perfection

 

[acidicality]

Still anyone's series...I expect Detroit to get it done in game 6.
