no, atlanta was overly physical, but they didn't scare me. it's our nerves that almost blew it for us, IMO. i knew in my heart before the playoffs started that cleveland would be our biggest issue, but other than that, i wasn't scared of anyone, including the lakers. you could say i overestimated our team, but you'd be wrong, cuz they did exactly what i expected.
they lost childress, who if you remember, seemed to cause quite a few problems for us in that series. bibby doesn't put them over the top, maybe a couple of years ago, but not now.
anyways, as far as athleticism goes, i'll take the bobcat's team any day of the week. now that they have a better coach at the helm, i expect (at least hope) that they'll be able to grab the 8th seed in the east. actually, i hope they grab the 7th, cuz i don't wanna play them in the first round
