TEAMS: Atlanta Hawks, Boston Celtics
Here's an update on Hawks forward Josh Smith. I'll use my deductive reasoning abilities to say no limp = will play.
If Smith can't go, Marvin Williams and Tracy McGrady will see time at power forward, reports CBS Sports.
The real reason I'm posting this tweet is to poke fun at James Winfro, a delusional Hawks fan who thinks more time for Vladimir Radmanovic is a good thing.
The last time we saw Vlad-Rad, Keyon Dooling made him look like a fire hydrant.

That’s right Josh Smith of the Atlanta Hawks had not a blooper but his own blooper reel tonight against the Boston Celtics.

Josh Smith doubtful for Game 3, probable for Game 4
And the red carpet rolling out for the Boston Celtics to reach the Eastern Conference continues to get longer. I’m not saying the Celtics will definitely make the ECF — the Hawks aren’t done yet and the Bulls would still be tough — but their path just keeps getting easier.

Josh Smith has sprained ligament, undergoing MRI today
We know Joe Johnson gets most of the headlines, earns most of the All-Star appearances and makes most of the money. But Josh Smith is, to me, Atlanta’s best player and it’s not even close. Sure, he often tosses up one or two (or one or two dozen) ill-advised jump shots per game and he’s not particularly known as someone who brings consistency to the court each night. But...
