One of the issues that was lost in the Boston's Game 5 win was that Detroit's leading scorer Richard "Rip" Hamilton was forced to leave the game in the final seconds with a strained right elbow .

Regardless of how bad the injury is, Hamilton will play when the Celtics visit Detroit tonight at 5:35 p.m. ET.

"I have no choice. This is do or die," Hamilton said.

"Once I get out there and the adrenaline is going, I'll be fine," Hamilton said. "I told my teammates, 'Don't look at me as a handicap.' … I'm fine. I'm ready to roll."

Oddsmakers have listed the Detroit Pistons as five-point favorites in the contest. Get your NBA odds in the Bodog Sportsbook!
