Celtics vs. Hawks in playoffs: who do you got?

[jpotter33]

Who you got?

It's not our best matchup, but all of the games have been pretty close this season. We're similar teams, so it'll just be who can play better for four games out of seven.

I'm saying Celtics in 6.

Did the Hawks lost on purpose to match up with the C's.. Can't believe they choked against the Wizards without Wall or Beal.

Christ. That's what we get for that great come back? Hate to say it but I'm going with Hawks in 6. I think the Hawks are the worse match up for us, they have to much 3 point shooting and spread our defense out.

MILSAP IS A PROBLEM...but we play them well..because i think we respect them so we always bring our A game.

really tough first round matchup and not what we wanted but I'll take the C's.   C's will be playing with a chip on their shoulder.

Got to agree on this one...for some reason Paul Milsap scores like he is a superstar when he is up against the Celtics...he probably has a career 25 ppg scoring against us or something.

find a way to stop him and we have a chance.

Taking the C's in 7... I believe!

[walker834]

We really can't underestimate the Hawks.  They are a real sleeper in the east and my sleeper pick to win it all if the c's don't beat them.

Atlanta's tough for the C's.  I think home court will make the difference.  I think Hawks in 7 but would love to see a C's sweep instead

Yeah, I think it has to be the C's in 6 or Hawks will take it with their home court.


I just love that we got the short end of both sticks here - the tough first round matchup and a date with Cleveland if we get past the first round.

Celtics better prove me wrong.

Hawks in 5.

[rondohondo]

hawks in 7

When does the schedule come out, tonight or tomorrow??

[Tr1boy]

You have to slow down Milsap. So annoying.  If you put a slower guy on him he can drive past you or shoot the three. if you put Crower or Turner on him, he will post you up all day and night. 

He is going to be a handful.  The guy I worry about the most

and from the bench Schroeder is freaking annoying.   Best bet is to put Rozier on him. Seriously

We win in 7 or Hawks do in 6

Our bench needs to blast theirs every game for us to have a chance

[Tr1boy]

It would be a dream somehow someway  GSW goes through hell to come out of the west

we get a gift from Detroit and don't face the cavs .  come out of the east

GSW vs Celtics finale.   Just dreaming large right now
