This has been a solid performance today. I don't think it's been a good one.

How do you figure?  The defense has been *amazing*.

The ball movement on offense has been good, and only Ray Allen is having an off-game.

Amazing defense + above-average offense = good game.  We've doubled-up the Hawks so far; if this is only solid, I'd love to see your definition of good.
I agree with you Mr. Hobbs; the Celtics have been legen...wait for it...dary!!!

definitely. gotta disagree with who on that one. this has been a good performance from the team. maybe one or two individuals could have done better. but the team was superb.

WHAT A PLAYYY

The results have been great. The performance has been solid.

I don't like the number of shots they've give up around the rim.

The Hawks have given up and have stopped competing here in the second half. Padding the box score now.

They might be giving up inside shots, but they're pressuring and defending those shots, so the Hawks are missing them.  Another opponent might make a few more of those shots, but not enough to make up a 20 point difference (or, 38, as the lead currently stands.)
