The Celtics have them on the ropes. And this is a perfect chance for the KO of Atlanta and their shit arena, in their shit city, with their shit fans. The Celtics absolutely shellacked the Hawks in Boston the last game out and ended up winning the game 101-79. What does scare me about this game is that the Celtics have been known to take their foot off the gas when they smell blood and get a little cocky. I would think that Joe Johnson, Josh Smith, Jeff Teague and others would be prideful and try not to let Sunday happen again. But then again Joe Johnson, Jeff Teague and Josh Smith have also been known to suffer from the give up syndrome.

Everyone seems to be healthy, everyone seems ready to go. Our point guard is playing on an MVP level, Pierce is playing out of his mind, KG has been great too defensively. I would like to see more production from Brandon Bass, who has kind of disappeared in the playoffs. However, the Celtics still keep their foot on the gas and win this one.
