In an interview this morning on Boston sports radio station WEEI, Celtics coach Doc Rivers said it was likely that Kevin Garnett would not be available to play at all in the playoffs.

Yep Pretty Much Frak....:(:doh:

without him we won't go deep in the play-offs.

Lakers-Cavs in the Finals

Lakers win it all (that was painful to say) :wall:

I know I heard the interview on the radio and was really dissapointed. I'm not throwing in the towel yet though. They still have to play the games. It just will be a lot harder without him.

I think they can make it to the Eastern Conf Finals, but don't think they can beat the Cavs (that's if they can beat the Pistons in the first round). It's really tough though. KG is such a competitor, he must be dying inside. You never know, he might pull a Willis Reed some where during the playoffs.

I can pretty much Guarantee they won't lose to the Pistons in the 1st round

Keep in mind, this is the playoffs, different kind of game.

The pistons have a lot of good pieces eventhough they jogged through the season. They never should have gotten rid of Billups and they never should have canned Flip.

i can dig it, Pa...

By the way, it does not look like your boy Iverson is going be available to play. That is probably good thing, since that means hamilton will start. He's a good guard, plays defense and is averaging 20pts career postseason. Add Prince into the mix and Wallace and they just might not get swept.

How sweet it would be if the pistons won, but it aint happening. Cavs in 5...

Looks like Ray Allen showed up game 2. Nice win.
