I will stay away from the Over/under Lastnight was a loss having it at 193 and final was 192 but I did have the Lakers at- 7.5 .I don't like even money and pay the juice games so I will only have one pick for this game . Detroit coming off a tough loss In Boston .However I don't think Kevin Garnett will Be banking 3's in at Detroit and Ray Allen won't have the game that he had in Boston where he was on fire from 3 point land .Richard Hamilton is questionable at this point . A scary thought with Hamilton leading the Pistons scoring during this series at 22 per game .Both teams have proven they can win on the opponents home floor .Detroit has covered the last two games in the series as 6 point dogs last time out at Boston and a win at home by 19 as a 6 point favorite infact Detroit has coverd 3 of the five Games they have played .BOS are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 road games.Detroit are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games as a favorite.Road team is 10-3 ATS in the last 13 meetings. 2 out of the three Games played in Boston have been over the total .Both games in Detroit have went under .If Hamilton Can't go in this game Rodney Stuckey will have to step up in his place ,Chauncy Billups and Lindsey Hunter will have to step up their game especially Billups.Tayshon Prince still looks confused in this series and hasn't impressed me much . Rasheed Wallace was fined 25,000 for his comments of the refereeing in game 5 wich just adds another dramatic twist to game 6 although he was right in my book Saying it was all bullshit and a show that was put on Lmao. Welcome to The NBA Rasheed ! Here is the way I see it . I wanted to take Detroit at home to cover .Rip Hamilton being questinable has put that doubt there that Boston could pull out a win . Only thing is Pistons will be very motivated to win this game and Rip being gone would only add to that motivation making players focus more not having that cushion of 22 points per game out there so they know they will have to stay focused add to that this is backs against the wall elimination Game win or go home .Detroit will be focused and ready .Boston will also be focused knowing the Lakers are awaiting whoever wins this series . One thing that sticks in my mind is that Boston said last series they would rather not have time off before jumping in to the next series and they play better with out the layoff .Does that play into factor here ? Yes I believe it does . Boston won't win this game and it goes to a 7 game series . Detroit playing well at home when they have one it has been large numbers at home over Boston . How ever I will take the +5.5 and Boston Due to the fact that I beleive Detroit wins the game but does not cover the points .
Pick Boston Celtics +5.5 Gl

Just too many pts for Bost here with Rip injured and players like Allen and Perkins stepping up. Still a lean for now, i usualy make my play minuits before the game.
Best of luck Grouch!!!!

I had similar analysis also.

how come detroit is the favorites in this game,considering rip might not play? line makers already knew that rip is already injured in their last game. anyway what do you think guys,is this a gift for the boston plus the points?

It,s a Home Game where they have beaten Boston by 19 and 20 points but also have lost by 14 with that wake up call game .I know You can't completely take 22 points out of the game just because Rip may not play .Naturally some one will step up and play in his place .Here is something else people may want to think about .If any one else gets injured wich is quite possible then it would greatly hurt Detroit. Lets suppose Wallace gets a booted from the game wich is highly doubtful but could happen .Lets suppose another injury to Billups or any other player on Detroit ? what happens then ? They are running thin ! This in fact may be a big trap game . Who knows ? Detroit may be putting this injury out there until game time to mindplay with the Celtics and Rip may come in and hit 30 And screw us all into an oblivian . I like Detroit to win this game actually but I can't give them -5.5 to 6 in a game where Boston thinks they can close .I am not in anyway saying that Detroit loses the game here so if you like Detroit to win take the Money line But I personally can't give away 5.5 to 6 points on this game .

Great night seems like The Nba has what they wanted a Laker Boston Matchup and a whole wek to talk about it analyze this and that by Game time the books will have the advantage and the betters will be confused on the point spread but it turned out as expected .Boston isn't how they used to be .I don't see Larry Bird and Kevin Mcale out there .Kobe and The Lakers will win it all.They don't miss and know how to get past the defense .Lakers are the best offensive basketball team in the NBA and wont make the mistakes that Boston has made and will make in the Championship . Check out the free throws.The west this year is much tougher than the east Boston it was a nice run but it is over now I am afraid .
