    Coming into this series, I expected nothing less than a sweep. I expected the Celtics to basically dominate the entire four game series. I never expected the Hawks to even win a single game, let alone two games and the series lead. The Celtics no longer seem as dominant as they once were. Kind of reminds me of the Patriots in a way...

    Not saying the Hawks will win this series, but I have a pretty good feeling an upset will happen. NBA, where amazing happens

    Yea, like for the Hawks to win would be crazy. They are just playing great basketball, and I love it. Joe Johnson is clutch and he took over that game. Goes to show that any team can accomplish any task no matter what. Man, the Raps lost, but I'm so happy the Hawks won!

    I don't think they'll win the series, but what they've already accomplished is amazing. Nobody gave them a chance, and they've won two.

    Hopefully they do pull off a major upset, though.

    Same Mamba. It's that no one expected anything that makes this so amazing. The Hawks just need to take this one game at a time.

    No I don't see the Hawks winning but at least the Celtics won't get a bunch of rest before the next round.

    I'm rooting for the Hawks on the basis of that Horford-Pierce incident alone. That was friggin' hilarious.

    This is sick for the Magic because even if both Boston and Detroit win, they will have worked their asses off in long series while the Magic quickly took care of Toronto and have a long time to rest. Cleveland, Boston, and Detroit are all having to work very hard to win their series right now.

    I don't think the Hawks will stand a chance in Boston though.

    EVERYONE picked a sweep.

    For this alone, even if they lose to the Celtics the next two games, Woodson should stay and get an extension. This is incredible.

    The Hawks can't possibly keep this up against Boston's incredibly loud home court.... oh wait.
