Another Road Loss, Another Game 7 For Celtics

C's Headed Back Home

First, the bad news. The Celtics again were unable to break through for a road win Friday, stalling for stretches on the offensive end in a 74-69 loss at Cleveland.

Kevin Garnett scored 25 points and Paul Pierce added 16 for Boston, which could not control LeBron James the way it had in previous games. The C's dropped to 0-6 away from home in the postseason and face their second Game 7 in as many rounds on Sunday afternoon.

Now, the good news. The Celtics have been virtually untouchable at TD Banknorth Garden, going 7-0 with an average victory margin of 18.3 points. They will be gunning for their first trip to the Eastern Conference finals in six years.

Man or Machine? You Decide...

KG is out there. He can't be bargained with. He can't be reasoned with. He doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And he absolutely will not stop, ever, until the Celtics raise Banner 17.
