NBA Playoffs Day 11

I'll go and worry for you all Pistons and Celtics fans. Specially Celtics fans. What's happening with this Eastern powerhouses? Are they just too relax? Are they at full throttle or they are waiting for the second round?

Whatever it is have shown weakness and ineffiencies in their systems. The armor is starting to crack - whick is worrisome for the Celtics 'cause their armor is a shinny new one - and those cracks are exploded by young athletic teams that doesn't wait for the other team defense to get set (ala last season Phoenix Suns). Both Philly and Atlanta are playing freely and with a John McLane mindset and they are in no way intimidated by the big boys.

Detroit fans continue to say everything is allrigt, that's just the way they wanted to happen. Pressure is your friend. You know what else is your friend when you are a old veteran team? Rest. Specially now that your next opponent, in case you don't go fishing early, features and 20 - 20 center that can run and bully his way through your team.

The Celts? Well, they have issues mainly this one:

Good luck Celtics, because you have leveled the playing field and everyone’s gunning for you as an easy mark for an underdog series win against NBA’s best. The Celtics look like the Dallas Mavericks of the East this year, and they will have to be more dominating on the road to lay claim to what every Celtics fan hopes they can achieve in these playoffs. Celtics 17th championship

Yeap, they ain't invencibles. Everybody knows that.


Dwight Howard and Kobe continues to roll. More on that on upcoming posts
