	People are making a big deal about the Celtics being 0-4 on the road, but they are also 6-0 at home. And all but one of those six wins were blowouts. So given that Boston has home court throughout, the real question should be, Can anyone beat the Celtics at home?

	So given that Boston has home court throughout, the real question should be, Can anyone beat the Celtics at home? Any team that will be in conference finals for the West and East can beat the Celtics on the road. The Pistons, Spurs, Lakers, Hornets, and Jazz could all beat them at home. Home victories against the Hawks and Cavaliers are nothing to be proud of either; especially since they can't win on the road against either of those teams yet.

	Umm Atlanta Hawks 12-29 on the road this season and the Cleveland Cavaliers 18-23. Are we surprised these two teams are winless on the road? The bigger concern should be the Celtics with 31-10 record on the road this season are winless in the post season so far on the road.

	Seriously, Detriot will be used to winning games 1 and 2, and will steal one in the garden. Boston better wake up and learn how to play in GREEN jerseys. They're supposed to win at home and if the run the table in the Garden they will be Champions, but this hasn't been done yet. Not to mention Detroits deep round playoff experience. Garnett has only been there once. Ray Allen since 2001, and Pierce 2002. It's been a while. It'll be a great series.

	I certainly don't want to bank on the Celtics going 16-0 at home to win the title. I'm nervous enough as it is. Winning just one on the road per series is key, and gives you room for error if your the C's. If they lose just one game at home at this point, series could be done.

	Big B, As you say that it is inevitable that they will lose at home, it is just as inevitable that they will win away from the garden, its the law of averages. im personally not worried about the Celtics at all. Its not like they dont know how to win on the road, they beat plenty of great teams on the road this season.

	Obviously nobody can beat them at home if they're 6-0. ... but if they don't learn how to play on the road, then I don't see them winning an NBA title this year. There's really no excuse to lose all of your games on the road, they're the best team in the NBA.
