Big 3+ Away Games = Loser?

The Eastern Conference Finals starts tonight and I'm excited. The boston Celtics host The Detroit Pistons. Many think that this series will go seven games and I diagree. It seems as if Boston has been milking this homecourt advantage until it goes dry and has the been the absolute worst road playoff team in the playoffs. In the Conference Semis. there were only 3 teams (Los Angeles, San Antonio, and Detroit) that won games on the road. There has not been a team that has lost all its road games and won the title. What's going to happen if Detroit takes Game 1? Can Boston focus to win a game In Detroit? I don't know and it's kinda confusiong how the best road (31-10) this season can't win a game in Atlanta of all places.What happened to the BIG 3 away from Boston? It seems like away games in the playoffs is Boston's Kryptonite.I am speechless on how a group of veterans play like a rookies on the road and like the 1992 Dream Team at home. So, the Eastern Conferenced Finals is as everyone predicted -Detroit and Boston. But, Bird, McHale, and Parrish are not suiting up... unless they're watchingm the game. Will Boston win a road game? Can Ray Allen get over his recent playoff struggles? Will Kevin Garnett be able to reach the NBA Finals? We will find out tonight...

MVP?

About 10 minutes ago, The Utah Jazz has tied their series up with the Los Angeles Kobes, Imean Lakers ( it slipped). But , what i'm wondering is why Kbe Bryant passed up that 3 point shot with 24 seconds left. I mean, He just won the MVP award on Thurdsay for being the best player in the league this season. And we all know that MVP does not stand for Most Valuable Passer. The lakers did not keep you there to pass up open shots to Sasha Vujacvic becausde he is SO great in late game situations. Oh, no he ain't!!! That is such shame beforeGod. The closer on the Lakers is number 24, not number 16, 7,2,4, or 21.
