I want to spend a little time to talk about The Atlanta Hawks and how well the boys did in the first round of the NBA playoffs this year. They had not got a playoff win in ten years of time. And they broke the spell and not against anyone but against the best team in the NBA this year - The Boston Celtics. The great by Joe Johnson and company not only get to one win but to whole three games. I have to say that i am extremely impressed with the perfomance by the team of Georgia.
Josh Smith played exceptionally well game for. So did Joe Johnson in the fourth quarter of the same game. They could have taken the game by twenty but weak early play in the third did not allow them to do so. However they took game four to tied the series. The selfish play of the Boston Celtics make them play two more games.
But this was not the end at all. The problem for Boston did not stop there. After losing in game six they were forced to play an embarrassing seven game series. The best team in the regular season was the only team in first round to close the series to close its serie in seven game. I already doubt them they will be able to cope with the Cleveland tonight. But time will them.
I am a Lakers so hope King James will do his best to stop the Celtics from advancing to the Finals.
This is all i wanted to say. Great respect for the young team from Atlanta. I really hope they would be able to proceed in the second round but... the luck was not on their side.
