He was just too much to handle. Aggressive on offense, persistent on defense. He seemed to be everywhere at the same time, and there seemed no way to stop him.And we're just talking about Jason Maxiell here. The bull strong Piston reserve was a key factor in Detroit's Game 4 win, serving up a highlight reel dunk, two sweet jumpers and a game defining block on Kevin Garnett, a block that screamed to the fans that there ain't no way the Celtics were getting another one in The Palace.
Of course, he had a lot of help from old reliable Rip Hamilton, who did another Reggie Miller impersonation, eating the helpless and hapless Ray Allen, who seems to be deliberately bricking his shots in a fit of superstition.
The series is now a best-of-three affair. I still think Boston's coming out of this dogfight but if they don't...Pistons are a more than worthy championship caliber team.
