Celtics Dominate on the Road

Apparently all the Boston Celtics needed was the feeling of panic and desperation to win on the road.

After starting the postseason 9-0 in home games and 0-6 on the road, the Celtics broke both streaks with a home loss and road win in consecutive games against the Detroit Pistons. Most interestingly was the dominating fashion in which the Celtics beat the Pistons on Saturday, at one point leading by as many as 24 in the Palace at Auburn Hills.

Now the series is proving to be competitive and Game Four is a must-win for Detroit to stay alive in their quest to reach the NBA Finals. The important question now is whether the league's best road playoff team can win a second game on the road at the TD Banknorth Garden?

And with everybody now hyping the Celtics after their win, who else but Pistons forward Rasheed Wallace was there to calm everyone down.

"I don't see it as a big thing," Wallace said, choosing not to make his latest guarantee. "It's all about whoever gets to four."

Wallace better hope he doesn't get to seven (technical fouls) or he may not be around to see the Pistons win four.
