If I have to bet right now, it would be on Pistons. But if that Ray Allen guy shows up finally, it could be different.
pistons in 6, the most solidified rotation will eat them up. Billups >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Rondo Hamilton>>>>>>>Ray Allen Rasheed Wallace<Garnett Prince <<<<<<<<<<<<<Pierce Pistons Bench >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Celtics bench
Pistons in 4, I hope. Yeah right... I'm taking Pistons in 7 or even 5. I have bigger faith in Pistons winning on the road than Boston taking all games at home. Boston hasn't won on the road and I don't think that changes.
I picked the Pistons to win it all before the playoffs even started, so I am sticking with that. Pistons in 6. "Time to go home, Rondo!"
I put Boston in 7. But if Chauncey looks himself in game 1 or game 2, I think it is going to be very hard for Boston (or anyone else) to beat them. The Pistons just seem the most complete team going and their isn't an individual like Lebron or Wade left who can decimate their strait up defense. But with out their Bigshot maker Boston's defense could smother the Det offense, so until proven Chauncey is 100%, I went Boston. Without a doubt, this series is going 6 or 7. These teams are too good,too veteran, too solid, no early knockouts or young teams falling apart here.
The Pistons are erratic. You don't know what to expect from them but I feel that they will get ready quickly for the Celtics. I hope that Billups will be healthy for the Conference Finals so we can see both teams at full strength. It's very hard for me to predict the outcome. Either team can win.
