You didn't see it coming. I sure as hell didn't see it coming. The Boston Celtics and the Atlanta Hawks are going to a seventh game. This series has proved to be no walk in the park for the Celts who won 60 something games this year. Does their regular season prowess even matter at this point?
The Hawks have proved they can compete with the Celts on a regular basis. Boston can't just play good and win anymore, they need to play exceptionally well. Atlanta is getting great efforts from their young and inexperienced line-up (6 players in double figures in Game #6). Another interesting stat is the 3 point percentage; Boston shot 4-19, while Atlanta shot 1-7. You'd think Boston would realize their shooting was lousy and try to pound it in for easy buckets. The truth is, they haven't had an easy time getting all the looks they want. A high octane, seemingly unpredictable team has forced a game 7. Sure, Boston has home court, but this one could be legendary.
GO HAWKS
