    In some senses, but this game, not really. I mean PP, Allen and KG are vets, but their experience doesn't really matter that much. It's all on which team plays better and who can play better defense.

    It wasn't even a play on his head, it was a play on his body.

    He wrapped him up on the upper body and it was a hard hit. Flagrant II, no doubt, though.

    Williams had no dirty intent on that foul, he's just so much bigger than Rondo.

    Question for the Celtics' fans here, are you guys expecting to win a championship this year?

    Are you sure Posey will get suspended? I don't think there was exactly an altercation on the floor when he stepped on the court.

    Although I could be wrong.

    Yeah the announcers totally went into high-pitch girly voice mode when they saw it. :[

    Kevin Garnett is a punk bitch, he just shoulder blocked Zaza.

    Mark Jackson is a fuckin' homer.

    He was trying to prevent an easy lay-up and went too far with the hard playoff foul.

    It's not as egregious as the announcers put it though, but it was a flagrant 2.

    Rondo was on a fastbreak, Marvin jumped and tried wrapping him up but he just had too much momentum.

    JVG thinks these losses on the road for the Hawks takes away from the luster of their wins at home. I don't think so. Everyone expected a sweep, Atlanta pushed Boston to 7 games. Despite the three blowouts, Atlanta has nothing to be ashamed of themselves. They've got a great young core and can only get better.

    Well hopefully the Hawks can build from this experiences on to next season.

    KG is a real G, dude hits somebody, when their not even ready, that's a man right there.

    Dude...the same could be said for Marvin Williams..

    The thing I don't like about KG's foul was that it was a revenge foul from their earlier altercation.

    Yes, LeBitch is in for a world of hurt if his teammates don't step up.
