How often do sports fans get to chant something as fun as "Boston Sucks, Boston Sucks!" in their sportsfan lives? For us folks in Phatlanta, it ain't very often. Granted, the Celtics are more than capable of destroying the Hawks over the course of the next two (and hopefully three) games. But when   more...

Tim Duncan is the best power forward in the game and one of the best ever to play. Able to play both forward and center, he can dominate whoever he plays on both sides of the floor. Not only that, he steps up his game in the playoffs with 24.8 PPG, 13.8 RPG and 2.4 BPG. He might be boring to watch,   more...

At the beginning of this series (and pretty much throughout the first two games), I was pretty outspoken in my confidence in the Celtics and their superiority. In fact, I made a wager with a Hawks blogger to write 300 words on the greatness of the Hawks for every game they won.

Immediately following tonight's game, Cheryl Miller interviewed Kevin Garnett. They talked about getting back to playing "Celtics Basketball", and what that meant. Mainly, KG said (and I'm paraphrasing), that it meant playing unselfishly, giving yourself on both ends of the court and keeping your   more...

Last and certainly not least, a shout out goes out to Hawks fans everywhere. The Phillips Arena was absolutely rocking all series long and it was a major boost to your team. You really did "shock the world" simply by forcing the series to seven games, and the home court deserves a lot of credit.   more...

I am Jack's pulsating ball of rage.All the things Boston did right in the first two games against Atlanta were thrown out the window tonight. They played terribly as a team, taking quick shots, never making the extra pass, leaving Hawks open for shots. They only forced 11 turnovers, let Atlanta   more...

These are just 33 things that I saw or noticed throughout the series. Congratulations to the Celtics for advancing, and congratulations to the Hawks for getting back on the NBA map.

I read several comments questioning why Doc still had his starters in with 3 plus minutes left in game 2. Here is a reminder of why you never let up in a game, even though you may think you have the game won with 30 seconds to go.Granted Atlanta doesn't have a TMac, but they do have Joe Johnson who   more...

Celtics turn back the Hawks - who were using aggressive tactics. The Hawks were handicapped by Bibby's lame comments regarding "bandwagon" fans. He doesn't know what he's talking about. Looking at last years attendance figures and records for all the NBA teams, you can see in the table below that   more...

...these guys have come together for one common goal -- becoming NBA Champions. They're not here to have some minor success and win some moral victories. They want rings. And across the court, with their ugly mohawks and highlight-reel dunks, are a group of guys who are standing directly in the   more...

The lowly eighth-seeded below .500 Atlanta Hawks could be the team that ultimately leads to the demise of the all-powerful Celtics. How is that? How could a 37-45 squad bring down the dominant 66-16 team that beat them in five consecutive contests prior to Game 3 of the first round?

As I watched the young Atlanta Hawks win two home games against the far more experienced Celtics, I wondered – what would it take to turn Atlanta into a serious contender?My first thought would be to build a time machine and go back to the '05 draft and take Chris Paul instead of Marvin Williams.   more...

"I Love That Little Man" I shouted that in the first quarter when Rajon Rondo came up with a huge defensive rebound over Pachulia and Josh Smith, ripping the ball away, mid-air from the much larger Hawks. I shouted it again on the next play as KG found Rondo loitering unnoticed underneath the hoop   more...
