MAN!!??!!
As a Celtic fan, nothing can be more frustrating than the second loss in Game 4 in Atlanta. The C's in the regular season won 30+ more games than the Hawks. Joe Johnson was on fire, scoring 17 points in the heat of the 4th Quarter...none bigger than knocking down that three-pointer as Leon Powe hit the deck on a nice crossover dribble. This should NOT be going down this way. The Celtics are the superior team...the Hawks gained a bunch of momentum that should have been squashed when the C's were up 10 in this game. Boston has buried teams in the 3rd Quarter all season, and put the nail in the coffin in the 4th with good defense, and making their shots. Not tonight.
And speaking of making shots...HORRID performance from the free throw line for the C's. 10 for 18 from the line...8 points means the victory. Championship teams hit their free throws late...and that makes me nervous. Teams better than Atlanta won't even make the game close, especially in playoff style basketball. They abandoned KG mid 4th...Shot one too many threes in the 4th...Didn't play tight enough defense on Johnson late...Missed free throws...all things that are just ultimately upsetting.
Needless to say...sleep may not come easy for Shyne tonight.
LET'S GET IT BACK FELLAS...DAMN!
