^^^ Yeah, he'd be a great fit. Hell of a player.

And to think, all Washington gave up was Kwame to get him.

How is his trade value so high? Surely GM's can't still be roped in by his "potential"?

We need to sign him for 13 million dollars and then trade him for Butler

I'm starting to think that the Bullets might be better off without Gil.

Gilbert has to become a more balanced offensive player, and a better, consistent positional defender.

I don't know if he'll be able to do that, though.

Butler is carrying the wizards at the moment. He's really become a great player.
Though a side thought Larry Hughes was very good too, went to the Cavs and i think you can count the amount of good games he had on your fingers and toes in his tenure there.

I'd trade just about anyone outside of T'n T' Ginobili or Bowen to get him. LeBron is he's smart will finish off the Wizards in game 6.

Atlanta came up short in Boston, Paul Pierce has to be stopped otherwise the Hawks have no chance.

Also the resident underdogs of the east, Orlando has got Philly or Detroit next up. I'm liking Dwight's chances of continuing his dominant form (b2b 20-20 games....wow)
Esp against the 76ers. I like their chances of getting to the Eastern conference finals.

If Detroit gets past Philly - no doubt they will - I think they'll take the Magic out in 6.

Childress with a skying tip-in at the buzzer to end the third

Sweet play there

Game Seven!

That's what I'm talkin' about... can see it being a blow-out, but who knows... and I expect the Hawks to play their best road game of the series.

What an incredible team win by the Hawks - got to feel good for them and their fans

Celtics have definitely been exposed, to a degree, in this series... will be interesting to see if it continues through out the rest of the playoffs. Assuming they move on. :)

Great win by the Hawks! I think no matter what happens in Game 7, they've far exceeded their expectations. I don't think many even picked them to win a game, let alone force a game 7. Just a great, gutsy team. They'll learn from this and hopefully build on it next year.

I have a feeling that the Celtics have got a bad case of Pistonitis - that is, an arrogance that makes them think that their opponent is not worthy of being on the same court as them. The thing is, at least the Pistons won a title. These Celtics haven't done a thing, except win 66 regular season games. So in other words - nothing.

Good luck to the Hawks in Game 7. I'll be rooting for them all the way.
