The Celtics haven’t won a road game in the 2008 playoffs yet, but they also haven’t lost a home game. Boston will move on to the Eastern Conference Finals to play the Pistons after their 97-92 defeat of the Cavs in a game that featured blow after blow exchanged by Paul Pierce and LeBron James.

This game was pretty much the LeBron James show for Cleveland, with an occasional appearance from Delonte West. LBJ had 45 points, leading all scorers, and West chipped in with 15. Beyond that, the next best scorer was Zydrunas Ilgauskas with 8. Paul Pierce had 41 points on 13-23 shooting, and was seemingly lights out in the first half.

The Celtics will host the Pistons on Tuesday or Wednesday, I’m presuming, but given the Spurs sudden week long break against the Hornets, I don’t want to assume too much. We keep on saying the Celtics will have to eventually win on the road, but, honestly, I’m not sure that’s entirely accurate.
