Yea, I don't find it to be a big deal in the long run. I mean it is nice to see Atlanta to win a couple games--eliminates the monotony of 4 blowouts but to think they have "swung the momentum" or some nonsense is kind of lol.

I would never veer from the +10.3 in favor of the -1.8.

QFT. Although it's still probably going to be around 20:1 now.

Plus I'd have already gotten out of most of it.

Would be a good sweat for Bobbo, though.

What doesn't kill the C's will make them stronger; hopefully this will force them to get their **** together and get Doc thinking about matchups a little more.

Can't wait to be there in Game 5. You can look for me in the last row directly behind one of the hoops AKA the worst possible seats ever. Wish me luck in gaining entry to the Dewar's Lounge.

I'll take the hawks at 20:1. I would wager up to 100.

As a Hawks fan who's watched every Hawks game televised this year, a few weren't on TV, the Hawks played their best game all year. All the ball movement, actual defense, pushing the ball constantly, and coming from behind after losing a lead in this game are things the Hawks very rarely do in a single game. I can't think of a game off the top of my head where the Hawks have played anywhere approaching this good.

That's not quantifying. Is mile and a half 30% shot to win it all? 40? 50? More?

I would too! And I guess I should qualify that a little...20:1 is about what it'll be according to the previous lines in the series, with me giving a slight shade towards atl now. And that'd be the no-juice line.

My guess for what it'll be on the books is something like +1500/-2500. Will be interesting to see it tomorrow, though. May be shaded more towards ATL with an expectation of a lot of people liking them now..

Fair enough. Though I think if someone else said "the Hornets are the favorites to win by a mile and a half" you'd probably talk about how it was a lazy and meaningless post that was a waste of everyone's time, amirite?

I mean, god forbid you actually put a prediction or definitive quanitification of your own out there. Much easier to take pot shots at others all day long.

Huh. There's absolutely no way the Celtics should be in this position -- I guess I've been overrating them for awhile and underrating the Lakers, who I thought would be challenged a little by the Nugs.

Seriously, the Hawks had 17 turnovers, shot 22% from 3 point land and gave up 15 offensive rebounds and won. How does that happen against a team we're supposed to believe is #1 in the league?

yeah you're right let's ignore the total body of work and focus on one close game.

They shot lights out from 2. Cs were the opposite. They were **** inside the arc.

I'm very surprised that Pierce took Horford treating him like a bitch and then came back with a 5/14 performance. I expected more out of him.

Also, I think when Zaza got up in KG's face that kind of threw him for a loop. I know it threw me for one. WTF Zaza, way to use your undeserved ego for team benefit!

Will pay $20 for gif of JJ clowning Leon Powe.

Ship the game 6 tickets.

Which has nothing to do with defense. Let's not realize that if Atlanta didn't block 8 shots the Celtics shoot 50% from 2 also.
