yeah, because you know all about what winning basketball looks like since your a knicks fan.

As a Cavs fan I'd like to see it go 7. As a basketball fan I'd love to see it go 7 with the Hawks winning.

Garnett should have been suspended, shoving a ref is usually not allowed but the league would be pissed if the Celtics get eliminated.

Atlanta is a mediocre/bad road team, and Boston is an excellent home team. I'm pulling for the Hawks, but I think Boston wins tonight (please prove me wrong!).

I think KG going to have a 2004 game. I don't he can consistently hit the board like this anymore, but I'm feeling 24, 20, 6, and a few amazing defensive plays in there as well.

Unfortunately I had to steal this one from a few people I have seen using it on a few different forums. I wish I could find one of the live angle, but this one is still beautiful.

Anyways, tonight will go a long ways to showing who will win this series. I'm thinking blowout (for Boston) until the Hawks can come out and prove me wrong.

I feel the same way.

I just hope we can force a game 7. THat would do wonders for this team's confidence next season

I can't see us winning a game in Boston, I just can't.

I'm rooting for the Hawks but I can't see them pulling one out here.

Hopefully it's a close competitive game, unlike the first two games of the series.

Why does the building look all smoky? Is that how the C's play defense?

This should be fun - I'm leaning to Boston to win, but am going for the Hawks...

Boston comes out with good energy, but they need to sustain it.

Bibby DEEP 3. Good sign for the Hawks, when he's hitting that outside shot, Hawks are much tougher to beat.

I don't think the Hawks can win in this building. Kevin Garnett gets a testosterone boost at home, so then he goes crazy. :rofl:
