Hey, Boston Celtics: remember all that hard work that went into that long, grueling regular season to make sure that you got the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference and with it, home court advantage? It's amazing that all it took was one off night (where the team really wasn't that off) to see that go "poof" in a cloud of green smoke. Last night's 103-97 loss to the Detroit Pistons leveled their Eastern Conference Finals series at 1-1, which normally wouldn't be cause for alarm. Except that the Celtics now have to do something they haven't done all post-season: win a game on the road.
Equally bad news: Doc Rivers hinted in the post-game comments that Sam Cassell might see some playing time in Game 3. I know several Celtics fans who are loading up their pistols to shoot out their TVs in advance in case this happens.
