Murray's taken 44 shots. Has to be the most since Kobe's last game

If Celtics want to win a championship, they have to avoid the Hawks? :D

Great shot DJM. Of course, when the Bulls need some separation, the Hawks beat the Celtics in 2 straight games.

Celtics favourite to win the championship struggling to beat the lowly Hawks. It's 2008 all over again. Nothing easy.

Boston announcers are absolutely hating on Murray saying that he's celebrating like he won the championship lmao

Wow! Great game!

GG, Hawks and Celtics fans. Back to back wins on last shots by the Hawks over the Celtics.
Potential 1st round match up, if the Hawks (10 seed) wins the play in games.

Maybe E$PN will talk up the Hawks now like they do the Lakers/GSW (9/10 seed)

If you want to get rich fade every bet of mine.

I can’t wait for the discourse in the next 24-48 hours about how the Celtics can’t win the championship because they lost back to back games to the Hawks, even though they’ve wrapped up the 1 seed

Pre-game and all the other 43 were just a warmup, while the 44th was what he was really going for.
