Someone’s Streak Must End: Pistons – Celtics

The Detroit Pistons vs The Boston Celtics
  • Facebook
  • Twitter

Both teams want this one badly don’t believe for one minute they don’t. Expect a battle from both teams with a playoff like atmosphere. Detroit goes into the game with a 11 game streak and Boston is on a 8 game winning streak of their own. In fact the last time Boston lost was to Detroit in their own building. The Celtics want revenge and The Pistons want to show that they are the better team. Both teams will play hard!

My Good friends Bennie and Jeff have moved to a new show called Game Day Live with Bennie and Jeff on Saturdays at News Radio WOOD 1300 AM in Grand Rapids. They are going to have George Blaha on to get his perspective on Pistons-Celtics match up and then yours truly will be on the show to get my take on The Showdown in Motown. You can head over there and listen to the show Live from 5:00-6:30 PM before the game.

If you want to talk Pistons with Bennie and Jeff on air, give them a call and you might be LIVE on the Radio to talk about the big game. The toll free number is 1-866-290-2899.

Tip off is at 7:30 PM and will be locally broadcast on myTV20 Detroit, and on the radio at 1130 AM WDFN The Fan, which also streams the feed live over the computer. Remember the Need4Sheed.com Forum Chat Room is always packed with Pistons fans at game time.

I am expecting big things from The Pistons and ALL Pistons fans at The Palace. This should get you pumped up if you aren’t already.

I’m off to The Palace so I’m leaving it up to you. Here’s to Piston red, white and blue.

    I have one comment. WHY IS THIS GAME NOT ON NATIONAL TV?! Out of state-ers are unlucky. Listening to it on the feeds is nothing compared to on tv
    :(:(:(
    It’s not even on NBATV.
    I thought this was suppose to be the #3 big game since the shock-clock generation started?

    KG is a punk… everyone says how nice he is… last year he throws a ball at dice, and now he can’t handle his shot being blocked… cleanly! Twice! They should give the pistons 2 assists on both ray allen threes.

  26. glen davis is cross-eyed

    They needed a hugh 4th quarter from that fat ass shaq looking glen davis. I doubt THAT will ever happen again. Dice was the wrong person to defend him… he kept leaving him in the paint… should have kept maxi in there. Also, was there a rule in this game against calling a foul on boston in the paint. paul pierce is the most overrated superstar in this league and eddie house is a ghetto ass bitch

    apparently after chauncey made that play at the end, the pistons started fighting and bitching at eachother…at least thats what the commentators were saying.
    i fucking hate the celtics…everything about them. i hate garnetts ego, i hate that big baby needs to lose 50lbs, i hate peirce’s face and i hate their uniforms…they look like leprachauns…i just hate everything about their team.
    I hate that prince is shooting bricks, i hate that we were up by 12 and just lost by 7. i hate that billups just wasted all the time, i hate that our streak is over…i hate life right now.

  28. Kevin Garnett is uneducated

    This game meant more to Boston than to us. Did you see the Boston bench standing the entire 4th quarter, while ours was sitting? Who cares??? The “Big 3” will be worn down by playoff time, playing 38 minutes a game.

    I have no respect for any team with Brian Scalabrine and the freakshow Scott Pollard

    Come on… it takes Big Cross-Eyed Baby, missed free throws, and bone-head plays for us to barely lose the game. It’s only one game. Let them gain a little confidence… if anything… it’ll push the pistons to play better.

    We didn’t have a good game period. No need to spend our time talking shit about their players. We KNOW we are the better team just not TODAY. Our 3’s can match their 3’s
    and their bench is not worth shit. At the rate they are playing they will run out of steam come playoff time. What I do know is that I will take Detroit over Boston anytime in a 7 game.

    of course their tied with the cavaliers…garnett is almost as bad as lebron.
    when the C’s called a timeout late in the 4th, he was repeatedly telling his teammates to give him the ball. Hes full of himself.

    We sound like a bunch of whiny Cavalier fans! Don’t blame Chauncey’s air ball 3, don’t blame Tayshaun for having an off shooting night, don’t blame anyone! The Celtics outplayed us, and it’s fine, because at the end of the season, our starters are going to be rested and ready to play a 7 game series. The Celtics are going to be tired from chasing a 70-win season, and that’s good for us! It’s ONE game during the regular season. I always loved being a Pistons fan because we are never disrespectful to our players and always are thankful to them for what they do. Grow up you fellow Pistons fans, I’m disappointed.

    GO PISTONS!

    The princess club—def for Lebron and Garnett. I don’t know about Wade, he isn’t that much of a bitch. Who else can we put in there? I can definitely see Duncan in there.

    It’s hard to believe that the Pistons played well, because when the pistons play well no one can stop them. maybe my expectations are too high, but what can you expect, it is the pistons after all.

    wow some people are really overreacting. Yeah, Chauncey made a bad play, yeah I hate the Celtics as much as anyone, but it was just one game. It meant way more to them then it did to us, and I still feel that we can beat them in a seven game series. Don’t freak out yet.

    All I’m saying is that we need to stop pointing fingers at our players and realize that it is a regular season game. I think the Celtics are annoying too, but I don’t think we should be pointing fingers at our players.

    tessa, it is a factor of the broadcasters being complete assholes, not being able to stand the celtics, and me (maybe along with other ppl) being sore losers. i would never be upset at the pistons for losing one game, because i have complete faith in them. however, i cannot stand the celtics and everything related to them. im just dreading the articles that will be posted at nba.com, along with everyone else talking shit. i prefer to be the one talking shit.

    tessa, hes just upset like the rest of us. hes already calmed down though. i dont think he was being serious, but we all wanted our boys to win this game, and the loss was disappointing and shocking, especially after a 12 point lead.

    I know everyone has different outlets to vent about your frustration. My theory is: 1)I don’t talk shit about other teams or players b/c I am a detroit pistons fan. 2)Talking shit about them for me indicate we are jealous of who they have on their team and what they stand for.3)They are so insignificant it is not worth my engery or time.

    i also don’t care about winning streaks. i felt more pressure to win while watching games in order to keep the streak because of all of our wins! so not good. i didn’t like it. now it’s a bit more relaxed, and we can go and play sa and dallas, some of the people we’ll be facing later on. esp sa, because we’ll most likely play them in the finals.

    From ESPN
    “Adios! See ya,” Posey said, mocking the Detroit fans by pretending to wipe tears from his eyes. “What’s the score?”

    That shows what kind of class Boston players have.

    And to end it all off, Posey threw in one more insult, intoning the “Deeeee-troit basketball!” rally cry that Palace p.a. announcer John Mason has made his signature.
    Billups did a little mocking of his own afterward in the Pistons’ locker room, opining that the Celtics had celebrated like they had won the Super Bowl. There had been no such shenanigans from the Pistons three weeks ago in Boston when they knocked off the Celtics in the first “measuring stick” game of the season between these teams, and it’ll be a surprise if the Pistons do not use Saturday night’s celebration as motivation when the teams meet for the third and final time of the regular season, March 5 in Boston.
