the hawks can't shock the world boston is too much bring on the cavs they are next

[Blitzwing]

Dunno what happened sa Hawks it was a bit disappointing that they went this far but boom...they suddenly were playing scared. I guess it's home court advantage. The Hawks were not the same aggresive bunch that was playing at their own turf. Bibby only had 3 attempts, Joe Johnson had a bad shooting night and so does Josh Smith....hopefully they can learn and build on this for next year.....

On another note....yes daog Lakeshow vs. the Jazz....3 more to go!!!

the boston is over confidence for their past games with atlanta kay feel nila wala gyuy dag-anan mao compyansa ra kaayo sila....Tan-awa ra gud kon unsa sila maninood hapit gud dili ka points ang atlanta next will be the cavs.. pero i think even ni ila line-up !!! maayo unta nga ang cavs ang makadaog sa series!!

how did you watch game 7 sa bos - atl? wala lage sa TV... nya way lami ako sopcast dre hehe anyways
Boston plays terrific at home (they massacre the hawks by more than 20 pts per game) , but they seem to struggle at the road.
I believe there is a little disparity sa officiating sa Atlanta. I have been following the series closely since game 1.
The hawks have like 50+ more free throws than the celts in the series. They say it's because Boston is a jump shooting team.
Yes they have good shooters but i dont think so, just look at the points in the paint for the series, Boston actually leads in that department.

This dubious free throws for atlanta have allowed them to stay in the game, slowing Boston's momentum everytime Atlanta makes a rally.
Atlanta is a very good team, they have a future core to build, very athletic and a matchup problem for half court oriented teams like Boston.
But If you have more points in the paint yet the other team has 50+ more free throws than you, then maybe the NBA is intervening to bring basketball and $$$ back to Atlanta.
