All the pressure going in is on the Celtics.
I don't agree with that anymore. Now, the Hawks too have something to lose. I think back to how I felt during the '04 series vs. the Yanks. When down 3-0, I had lost all hope. Then, I wasn't stressed at all during games 4-6 since I still figured the series was over. Then, for game 7 - I was a bundle of nerves ... cause it was real, we had a game 7 chance!
The Hawks too now have something to lose, and could be tight for this game.
I wish the Garden fans would be more like ATL fans (in that they should be ignorantly blissful and just pull for the team. Ignore how disgraceful it would be to lose and just root, root, root). My biggest concern is if the C's got down early, we might here boos ... or deafening silence. The Hawks have proven in this series that they don't play well going against a hostile crowd. The Garden fans just need to keep it hostile and we should pull this out!
