I knew this was bad when Felger picked us and said the hawks are soft. This whole mindset seems to be pervasive in the boston media in general. The hawks are better than us. We are the team that is playing like we are made of glass right now. There's also this mindset that if we win in boston the hawks don't have the mental toughness to win a game 7. That gives them something to prove. Why do this? I wish it would stop. There was that whole feeling going into games 1 and 2. We got off to terrible starts both those games. We then came back and won a couple when the media thought we were done. Then there was this whole feeling like we had this game and we got killed. If we win the next game and get this to a game 7 somehow Atlanta is not a soft team and is going to have a lot to prove on their homecourt. That is a big if too. We are going to have to really bring it next game. They are going to be looking to close this out. Our entire season is on the line the next 2 games. We lose our season is over. All that for another first round exit.
The hawks are a very good team and a bad matchup for us in the 1st round. We are missing Avery Bradley too and are banged up. We have to bring our A game at all times. We let this last one get away from us.
