The Boston Celtics and Detriot Pistons kicked off the Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals last night and the Celtics are still undefeated at home. Boston is now 9-0 at home after beating the Pistons last night 88-79. The key to the Celtics victory was the play of Raja Rondo in 40 minutes Rondo had 11 points but his defense on Chauncey Billups was the key. Billups last night only had 9 points and seemed out of place coming off the hamstring injury. Kevin Garnett had 26 and Pierce 22 which made the Celtics take 1-0 lead in the best of seven against the Pistons. Doc Rivers the coach of the Celtics had this to say.”I believe in him. I play him. I’m going to keep playing him,” Celtics coach Doc Rivers said of his point guard. “I told him before the game, ‘Stop worrying about them. Make them worry about you, too. You’re a hell of a basketball player.’” Game 2 will be Thursday night in Boston.
