Delonte! TOMMY POINT!

[fairweatherfan]

Lot of game to go and Atlanta can score a bit.  Keep stretching it out, finish the first in blowout territory.

[Donoghus]

This is amazing.

18/24?

[barefacedmonk]

Terrific effort by Delonte.

[CelticSooner]

I guess it's safe to say the C's sent a message in the first quarter. 

[Spicoli]

That was an EXCELLENT quarter of basketball. Offense and defense clicking. Goes to show you these guys have the potential to play like this every night if they want to.

if they keep playing like this, Bradley may actualy get a few minutes of playing time.

[Casperian]

Let´s keep it going at this rate and finish the game 156 - 52, please.

[LilRip]

offense aside (we've only hit one lucky shot so far) the defense has been superb. Only Josh Smith's drive to the hole (where he was fouled by Shaq) has been the sole good Hawks attempt. amazing!

btw, Jamal Crawford is the type of player/scorer the Celtics should love playing against. over-dribbler who doesn't mind settling for jumpers. should play right into the C's hands

Doesn't hurt that Atlanta is playing like someone put Ambien in the Gatorade cooler.

That would really make it up for last season series sweep

[nba is the worst]

gEEZ - TRIPLED THEM UP.

cRAZY

[Megatron]

Im at a loss for words, what the hell is going on here guys?

[fairweatherfan]

Jamal Crawford must be salivating at the prospect of 3 quarters of garbage time.

Can't get into isos and the ball sticking on offense here - we've got to keep moving the ball like we did in the first.

hahahahah 156-52. Imagine the headlines on nba.com. How would they spin it to make it look like we just got lucky ?!

What a game thus far.
