WOW....just wow.

Atlanta has played their hearts out at home....give em credit. The city of Atlanta went from being a perceived weakness to a huge strength. Thank God we won't be going back there til next season.

The Hawks have had a good run but it ends Sunday. They've impressed me and the have a bright future.

The fact that Rondo was even in the game. Is the reason why Doc Rivers should be fired.

atlanta shot 47 free throws to the celtics 25.. this was probably one of the worst reffed games i have ever seen against the celtics..

Why not bring Sam in after the first miss?

Why, Doc? Why?

Too inexperienced, too tentative, too nervous, and too young, kid will make many mental mistakes in critical high pressure possessions. No team in the NBA has won a playoff series with a combo 2nd year shoot first PG. You guys really need more experience @ the PG position, Bibby is just abusing Rondo all series long, and where was Cassell in that last possession, horrible coaching.

What's up with Eddie House? Has he been that bad or is Doc not trusting him?

This is not on the refs! The hawks were more aggressive. The celtics were just passing the ball around the 3 point line. They could not rebound get stops or score when they needed to.

Hawks could very well win this series. It sucks we have to wait 2 more days for the game.

We don't have anyone else that can run the ball up the court and still have 6 seconds left to execute a play besides Rondo.

what was shuttlesworth thinking rushing a 3 point shot with atlanta only ahead by 2 points!! KG incredible turnovers...

this is what I hate about playoff games.. the Ref's always get freakin' intimidated by the home crowd.. it was obvious tonight.. hopefully we get some homecookin back in Boston during Game 7.. ugh

free throws - 47 to 25

personal fouls - 23 to 33

sure some of the blame is on the celtics for not taking it to the hole, but my guess is points in the paint was pretty equal...

the officiating was a complete travesty and the 6th on pierce was downright laughable.

Listen fact of the matter is that we lost tonight but we own them in boston, we all wanted it to end tonight but we have a very very good chance of still winning the series lets not freak out.

A nice breeze of levity to cut through the angst.... which just came back.

I got so knotted up inside watching it on television that I came upstairs to the computer and followed it through this thread and through nba.com numbers for the fourth quarter.
I'm sure they'll win on Sunday, but I hope they won't be so drained and exhausted and discouraged that the next series will be even worse.
I just have to do a lot of deep breathing for the next couple of days.

Ever since Cassell came here it has really limited his minutes. I wish Doc would go with whoever the hot shooter is on any given night. But that hasnt been the case.

Looks to me like someones been following box scores instead of watching the games.
