They can't win on the road, unless something changes tonight. Detroit must be licking their chops to get a crack at Boston (and not another shot at Lebron). I think it may be Detroit's to lose.

Are the Lakers still the favorites in the West? They can't win on the road...

I agree that Detroit loves what is happening...but think about it...only the Detroit series has not gone to seven...has had a road win...

Weird playoffs.....

It has been a wierd playoffs. But, at least the Lakers won on the road in the first round (actually won 2). The Celtics have played 13 games and have won 7, all at home. That would scare me as a Celts fan.

no one is winning on the road. I saw a stat yesterday road teams are 1-19.

The Celtics will win Sunday but they could have used a win tonite to keep Detroit from having ahuge rest advantage.

Yeah, Detroit's the only team to put that 1 win up on the road. 'Sheed is always the key for the Stones.

Make that 2-19. Lakers hang on for a 3-point win to win their series.

I can see Lebron single-handedly carrying his team to victory in Game Seven if only one or two if the Big Three in Boston are playing well.

I will ask again, did they win? I am too lazy to look it up on espn.

I am currently watching the game on replay on espn.

I'm surprised the Jazz lost (not a big NBA fan, but I'm a closet Jazz fan). I think the Celtics will win at home, and the Pistons will have to be able to prove they can win at Boston before anyone gives them the Finals. I like the Hornets a lot right now, though it's really hard to upset the Lakers right now.

The Celtics are really surprising me right now. With all that experience, I'm surprised they could gut out at least one road win so far.

The Celts aren't playing like they did in the regular season, but as they say the regular season doesn't matter now. The main question I have is what happened to Ray Allen and why does Rondo think he needs to take 15 shots a game? The Celts are actually doing a pretty good job on Lebron it's just that both teams are struggling so much offensively anyone has a shot. I think game 7 is a tossup
