6 more games to go.. The Hawks currently have the 3rd seed.

[Benedict_Boozer]

This game is mildly important because ATL will want to prove they can beat us.

But with HCA all but locked up....will probably see more LeCoast.

[Rise Against]

Cavs just upgraded Andy Varejao to questionable vs. Hawks tomorrow but it still sounds like Mike Brown prefers to rest him 1 more game.

[Rise Against]

Oh, and anyone wanna take a guess on how many points Jamal Crawford will score on us?

[prekazi]

With the way we're playing lately we'll probably lose this one.

[L&H_05]

It's time for the Cavs to actually turn it up.... Hawks are the perfect team to do so against..

Not only that, but we don't want ATL getting any more wins and getting closer to securing the #3 seed. Orlando will crush them in the second round.

Haha well no offense or anything, but I mean look at the matchups against Orlando this season.

No I understand. We beat Orlando once at home but that signifies nothing. They will wax us. It doesnt matter who we play in the second round. Were gonna raped either way.

[Rise Against]

Jamison averaged 23.2 points and 12.7 rebounds in his last nine games against the Hawks while with Washington.

And damn, who will hit a dagger 3 against the Hawks if Varejao isn't going to play.

I would rather play the Celts in the 2nd round than the Hawks, call me crazy, but I think the Hawks are a tougher out. I would enjoy watching the rapidly declining Celts get routed by our Cavs almost as much as I enjoyed watching Detroit fall apart against us. Plus, we would have the added enjoyment of doing it to Rashweed again. That would be priceless.
I dont think the Celts would put up much of a fight against Orlando either, so at least if the Hawks play Orlando, maybe they could stretch the series out a game or two more helping us out some.
