Paul Pierce and Celtics are not big fans of the Heat and would like the Heat to lose every game for the rest of eternity.

Don't think that happens tonight though.  Heat get #23 and Boston can start thinking about that 7th seed pretty hard.  I'm thinking right around a 97-84 type score.

Was planning on doing more of a thorough write up on this.  Extremely excited about this game and how intense it's going to be.  Been in and out of the doctor today, nothing but good news though!

I also got distracted by Superman II and Caddyshack.
