Absolute killer sequence right there.

WE get right there and give it right back.

Stop tipping the ball and dunk the thing.

OH HECK YES!!!!!!!

The Hawks made their run without hitting threes. 

19 points. This isn't over yet.

That was NOT a foul by Jalen. 

If you're going to foul, FOUL!

No offense, No defense!

 

6 bench points. Nothing from Bogi and OO.

Trae 4 assists/4 turnovers - did not like his approach to the game.

Hunter with a goose egg.

We ate being outscored, out rebounded, out assisted, out-everything.

 

^The Hawks aren't this bad. I fully expect them to bounce back. 

It'll be interesting to see what adjustments Quin makes and how the team responds in the 2nd half. There's no pressure at this point.

Worse case scenario in the 1st half but at least there were some signs of life offensively in the 2nd quarter. Gotta take the glass half full approach to that 1st half butt whooping. 

The Hawks aren't this bad offensively. They have to return to the mean at some point.

Hawks need to respond before the end of the half. Show some toughness.

I thought Boston was supposed to be rusty??? What the heck Hawks?????

I'm confident.  I felt all year that we were a better team than our record showed.  I think we're going to win this series and I think that if we play up to our ability, it will be a decisive win.

This team has too much talent to be a Play In team or a 7th seed in the Playoffs. The only reason this team is "mid" is because they didn't play the game the right way for much of the season. Even some of the wins were tough to watch due to defensive lapses during the games and dumb iso play at the end of quarters or in crunch time. The Miami game showed how good this team can be when they play the game the right way AND why they lost to teams they had no business losing to. If Quinn can get the team to sustain what they did in the first quarter of the Miami game, they will give the Celtics all they can handle and more.

Trae has been struggling from 3 over his last 5 games including the Play-In. It's not pretty

3-28 for 10.7% 

 

The Hawks need him to break out of his slump to have a chance against the Celts. They're going to need all hands on deck offensively to keep up. I fully expect this series to be a shootout.

I thought the refs weren't calling these BS flops anymore???

Bey just has it. That’s it.

Excellent midseason pickup.

Butler has been flopping all game. It's annoying.

Lowry literally threw himself into a defender and flung the ball up looking for a foul

That's his game. That nonsense was supposed to be legislated out of the game two seasons ago.

I LOVE JALEN JOHNSON!!!!

Offensive foul. Hook by Butler!!!!
