Admin Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 I made the point a few weeks before the season ended that we shouldn't fear the Pistons because of how tough we played them this season and that I thought they were beatable. I also mentioned that I was confident that Boston would blow us out but a lot of you seemed to think that we had a better chance at beating the Celtics. So for those of you that felt that way, do you still feel that way now? I think we will be lucky to not lose by road games by 20+ and both homes games by 10+. As much as getting playoff experience should help our team I really hope that getting blown out won't be a big harm to them in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTruth Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 Detroit sleepwalks through the regular season just like the Spurs do, so I cant say the Hawks would fare any better against them than we are against the Celtics--we still would get killed either way.

dalamchops Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 just because Philly can beat them doesn't mean we can. Philly has played much better in the past 2 months than we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJHAWK Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 I argued this point with Peoria bird a few weeks ago. We could have given Detroit a series. There is no doubt in my mind we would have had a punchers chance of beating Detroit. We can only pray that we will give Boston a series. I just hope we dont get swept. At least win a home game or two. I think we can do it but Bibby has to knock down perimeter shots and distribute WAY WAY WAY better than he did last night. Its funny because it seemed to me Bibby could get wherever he wanted to go last night, he just couldnt knock down the shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted April 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 Yep it definitely seems like unless Bibby gets 20+ while shooting a good percentage we will have no shot. It's ridiculous how bi-polar he is with his shooting. He is either on fire or on ice. Nothing in between. We can't win without big games from JJ and Bibby and decent games from our supporting cast.

AtLaS Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 Yeah, I wanted Boston but I'll admit that was a mistake. Detroit doesn't have ONE player as good as any of Boston's big 3. Boston is just a GREAT, great team. The thing is, Detroit is known for their defense, and Boston is even better than them at that.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruJerz Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 yes I do. I thought I would rather the Celts because even though they are better than the Pistons, I thought we matched up better with the Celts but boy was I wrong! lol Pistons are good but they slack off unlike the Celts. We could take the Pistons to 7 games i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
