Celtics vs Pistons Preview

Depth Chart

	Detroit (PPG)	Boston (PPG)
PG	R. Stuckey 15.6	R. Rondo 10.8
SG	B. Gordon 12.0	R. Allen 17.7
SF	T. Prince 14.6	P. Pierce 19.0
PF	C. Villanueva 13.1	K. Garnett 15.1
C	B. Wallace 3.2	S. O'Neal 10.1

The only thing that scares me is that the Celtics don't take this game seriously after playing the Magic. However, even with 60% effort the Celtics still should be able to beat the Pistons who are benching Rip Hamilton amidst trade rumors.

Looking at the Pistons roster I don't see one player who I would like to have as a starter. There is no future, there is no now, and they are stuff with Charlie Villinueva and Ben Gordan for tons of money and years.

Celtics win easily:

109-87 Celtics
Tommy Award: Rondo
