HedleyLamarr Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 If you look closely at the play-by-play stats from last night's Celtics-Hawks game, you will see that, from starting around the midpoint of the 3rd quarter, the Hawks scored points on seventeen straight possessions.....against one of the best defensive teams in the NBA. That's incredible... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brendan Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 I always find the NBA playoffs to be very unprofessional. Like how they start the second round before the first round is over, and teams have two days off in between games. The NBA playoffs are all about making money not about good basketball.

TFoA Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 Well, it's currently 85-49 Celtics in the 4th Quarter of Game 7.This may be the most mystifying Hawks team ever. I mean, I knew they were bad on the road, but I guess there's really no excuse for getting destroyed by the Celtics after proving that they could beat them, albeit at home. It was just a shame to watch them go out and get destroyed like that.But I guess it's cool. The future definitely looks bright, though. If the Hawks can improve from being an atrociously bad road team to being a halfway decent road team, they'll make some noise in the future.But until then, thanks Hawks. Enjoyed the run, even though it never extended outside of Atlanta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew22 Posted May 4, 2008 Author Share Posted May 4, 2008 That was beyond maddening. It was saddening. If the Hawks can bring everyone back for next year and get a center besides Zaza, they should be good. Thanks for the great ride Hawks. Bring it again next year.

You beat the 'worst' playoff team in the playoffs this year in 7 games. Let's see what happens against the LeBrons, or the Pistons. If you guys run into Detroit, I can only pray that you guys make it competitive because the Pistons are in 'kill' mode right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think anyone on this team is satisfied in any way with their performance in this series, at least on the road? They are, and should be, disgusted.Not that the game today wasn't the single best performance I've ever seen at least this year. I didn't expect that from Marvin. Maybe Horford or Pachulia or Bibby, but not Marvin. I like him generally. And Zaza got owned. Big whoop, Boston. You beat the 'worst' playoff team in the playoffs this year in 7 games.Thank you.

It looked like he was trying to kill him live, but the replays made it look like he was trying to hug him to keep him from scoring.

DG_ThenNowForever Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 I just read that the Hornets are up 2-0 over the Spurs in the second round. I guess all it takes for Byron Scott to be a good coach is having the best point guard in the league. Seems like a good strategy to me. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
