    The Celtics are up by 18 at halftime. Boston's bench has stepped up after a lousy second game.

    The Pistons don't look worried though.

    The one on one interview with Bill Russell and KG was fantastic.

    KG scores and the Celtics lead by 20. They better not Spur it up. Those second half 20 point leads on the road give teams a false sense of security.

    Perkins scores he's now 4-4. His basket stops a 4-0 Pistons run.

    Celtics are getting a little sloppy and Allen just picked up his 3rd foul.

    Pistons find themselves down by 20 still and Chauncey Billups hasn't given them anything tonight. Piston fans are actually booing.

    Why do the Pistons have to be so dumb like this? They're at home, they're supposed to be killing the Celtics.

    They looked flat right from the start and the Celtics came out with a lot of energy. It has to be frustrating for Pistons fans because their team has always played this way in the post season.

    This will be a huge victory for Boston taking back homecourt advantage and finally getting a post season road win.

    Wow Stuckey with a strong move. Pistons are making it a little run here only down by 13.

    Celtics hit a big three, Pierce!

    Pistons comeback and score two more.

    Sheesh. Too bad Chauncey isn't in this game, or else Detroit may have a better chance at continuing this comeback.

    It's funny how even when his team is up 20, Perkins looks like a pissed off little kid, who's mad because he didn't get what he wants.

    This game is starting to get frustrating, though. The Celtics are starting to get away with some dumb things.

    WOW, Stuckey with the nice play!! Damn, that's awesome.

    Wow. Speechless. What's with the no-calls on the travels? Are the refs that f*in blind? That's just pathetic.

    The Celtics are settling for jump shots with their last few possessions and the Pistons are attacking the rim. Stuckey has no fear going right at KG and Perkins, those DWade comparisons aren't too far off base.

    I think the Celtics need to work the clock more and run the offense inside with KG. He's had his way all night in the post and when the double comes Perkins is wide open for dunks. KG is the guy who can provide a knock out blow tonight.

    Nice play out of the timeout, Rondo gets inside and the bucket. Pistons back up by 15. Pistons miss on the other end.

    Pistons are 0-10 from behind the arc tonight. Now they've stopped attacking and Boston is pulling away.

    Such a disappointment. They need to make another big run.

    Wow. Nice! Cut it to 11. Nice steal by Prince, nice shot by Rip.

    Damn get rebounds! Turrible.

    Sweet! Chauncey got a 3!! YES! And Tay with the dunk! Sweet.

    Sheesh. Paul Peirce hurts himself. Maybe that'll finally even up the teams (when taking into account Billups' injury).
