CELTICS TAKE ON THE PISTONS TONIGHT; CELTICS WIN EVEN IF THEY LOSE JUST BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE TO LIVE IN DETROIT
The Celtics will play the red-hot but annoying as hell Detroit Pistons tonight. If they win, the C's will be considered one of two contenders in the East. If they lost, the Pistons will be the overwhelming favorite and the Celtics will be second fiddle. Here's what the Celtics need to do:
1) Once, just once, pull Rip's facemask back and snap it.
2) Rebound well to minimize second-chance opportunities.
3) Feed the hot hand on offense. This seems like common sense, but this has been a problem all season for the C's.
4) Do something to piss off Rasheed Wallace and then duck when he throws his jersey.
5) Make Billups work all game. The C's should be throwing picks on him all night long, Rondo's got to get to the rim on O and then get right under him on D. As good as Billups is, he can be worn out because his head weighs 195 pounds. He looks like one of those NBA Jam bobblehead men, except he is susceptible to gravity and physics. It's exhausting to drag that melon around.
6) EXECUTE DOWN THE STRETCH. This is the WEAK POINT that can be exploited by opponents. It's a fact. The C's need to right this ship immediately or they will be the most-hyped first round flop since, um, last year's Mavs.
Nevertheless, the Celtics will win tonight. 95-86. Pistons run out of magic, and the Celtics finally put it together down the stretch. Book it!Source URL: http://ledger-heath.blogspot.com/2008/01/celtics-re-sign-chief-to-10-day.html
