Game 5 Tonight in the D!

The Pistons will look to take the lead in their best of 7 series with the Sixers tonight and set up a close out game on Thursday when they meet for Game 5 tonight in Detroit. The Pistons showed their true colors in the second half of Game 4 playing stellar defense and playing unselfishly on offense. It is widely known that the winner of Game 5 in a tied series usually turns out to be the victor. The Pistons would do well to come out swinging and put this one to bed early. The Magic already moved on in their series, dispatching of the Raptors last night. They will be getting plenty of rest so the Pistons don't want to extend this series any longer than they already have.

Game 5 will be broadcast this evening on TV20 and NBA-TV @ 7pm.

On another note, it looks as if the Celtics are getting more than they bargained for from the Hawks as well. The upstart Hawks have won 2 in a row now to even the series at 2 a piece and assured themselves at least one more home game in the series. I certainly still believe the Celtics will prevail in this series, however it is nice to see another Eastern Conference power having to fight as well.
