In the Garden, the Celtics look like the Celtics that played all year long. In the ATL, it is completely different. Is the problem that the Celtics can't play well on the road? Unlikely. They had a great road record this year, and they won playoff intensity games all year long (Down by 22 to San Antonio in the AT&T Center, snapping Houston's win streak, beating LA in the Staples Center).

I think it is more likely that the Celtics have an Atlanta problem than a road problem. I expect them to win game 7 decisively then shut down Cleveland in 6. Are still my favorites to win it all.

"The Patriots Defense basically sucked last year - and will again this year" -Steve

What is your basis for that claim? The Patriots had the #1 ranked red zone defense in the league last year.

Its definitely going the right way. I abandoned CS:S for DoD:S sometime ago, as stated above, simply because CS wasn't offering anything new. I'll be coming back if they continue with this.

I'd like to get the PS3, but I can't shell out 500 dollars. I'll stick to PC and 360.

It doesn't matter how new it is, I imagine. If there aren't enough people playing online to justify the costs of maintaining the servers, they won't maintain them.
