Elite big men win games in the playoffs ... even if they're undersized bigs like Green and Millsap.

Seriously, this is a big ????? for me with Stevens right now.  Crowder cannot cover Millsap. Just giving him free buckets.

Who freaking knows. It's not rocket science.

Hawks are clearly a better team than we are.  They won 60 games last year and sent 4 guys to the allstar game.  There's no shame in losing to them in 5. Also, this isn't our final form.  If the team cared about the short term they would have made improvements at the deadline.  Instead, we took a long range view and maintained flexibility for this summer.  The franchise doesn't care about these playoffs and neither do I.  Glad we got a win. Whatever.

ugh. no inside game at all. every drive to the rim just gets swallowed up.

please let this off-season bring some real shooting and at least one guy who can score inside.

Nice take by IT. He has to keep that up and rely on his penetration.

Atlanta is just way more talented than we are and were the worst possible matchup for us, just simple as that.

I'm glad Stevens got his first playoff win at least.

Still a long way to go to posing a threat in the playoffs.
