How long will the Boston/Atlanta series go?

I don't want to insult Hawk fans, but I see the C's sweeping this series. Celtics are just on a different level then the Hawks. They've got some nice pieces for the future though.

The Hawks are a good young team with a bright future and a couple of playoff veterans in Joe Johnson and Mike Bibby. I wouldn't be surprised if they took a game from us, but I expect to sweep. I don't think it will be four blowouts, but when you get to the playoffs, experience is a huge factor. And when you couple that with the talent on our roster, I expect the Celtics to take care of business. But the Hawks are a tough group and have always given us trouble on the boards, so it's definitely not gonna be a cake walk.

Sweep. Let's be honest, as good as the Hawks have looked the last few weeks, they aren't in the C's league yet.

I'd love to get the opinion of those posters who said it would take more then 4. Either they are Atlanta fans or they're hiding under their bed. :lol:

Yup. I think that's a good way to put it. There is a chance the Hawks take a game at home because it's not that easy to sweep a team, but the 2 teams really aren't in the same class.

Well I'm an Atlanta fan, but I voted for four games. We are just happy to be here, I wouldn't be shocked if we stole a game, but you guys are far more talented and on a mission.

I can see the Hawks sneaking away with one game, but certainly not 2. I say there is a 95% chance it goes 4 games, 5% 5 games, that's it.

It takes a lot to sweep someone but while the matchup clearly favors us I voted the Hawks get one win. 5 games.

Having read this board last year, I can assure you that isn't true.

There's a reason for that.

Anyways, I wouldn't be surprised if this went six, but we should finish in four.
