Manly move by Horford against KG.

That's a very weak 9 point lead teh celts have right now. It's closer then the score says and unless something changes this is going to be a lot more challenging series then I thought.

Boston isn't executing as well on offense as I thought they would, also Pierce isn't getting to the line on top of KG and Perk getting foul trouble.

3rd quarter will be a make or break quarter

I want to be optimistic as a Hawks fan but a lot of it is because you guys are in foul trouble.


I tried to tell people that even if we get swept we will make games interesting.


We just wont know how to finish (and biased refs wouldn't help either)

whoever keeps yelling "3 seconds!" for the C's when the Hawks are on offense needs to shut the hell up.

Horford should see the ball more. He was the Hawks' best player in the regular season against the Celtics and he's been their best player tonight as well.

More like nonexistent. He just shoots when the ball is in his hand.

The Hawks team has the collective basketball IQ of a rock.

Rondo's really stepping it up for the playoffs. Seems as if the only thing he can't do right now is hit a three. :lol:

Josh Smith is a beast? Are you drunk?

4 pts, 5 rebs, 1 asst, 1 stl, 3 blk, 2 shots blocked on 2-8 shooting through 3 quarters

Pathetic is a better word than 'beast'

Mike's not reliable when his shot is off, and can't be set up that much for shots.

I think Boston has this one in the books going into the 4th unless it's a collapse by the C's. They played a good game, and Atlanta has some improvements to make.
