Looking forward to watching this one tomorrow. Time to seal home for 1st round.

I like your lucky charms SD, I really do.

Vida Guerra is bad too.

Blake's last tech was rescinded as expected. He's back at 11.

It looks like Butler will play. Not totally sure on Young, but was listed as probable earlier.

[mkwest]

The Celtics have the higher seed, but Atlanta has a 1 game advantage over the Celtics. If Atlanta finishes the season with a better record, they get home court against the Celtics in the first round. Boston owns the tiebreaker. Boston will be facing the Heat tonight with LeBron, Wade, Bosh, Turiaf, Garnett,Allen, Pietrus, Rondo and Stiemsma all sitting out.

If not for Caron Buter, for some reason, I really like how Marvin Williams would fit on the Clippers team. He's a 6'9 SF who averages about 6-7 rebs/36, he can shoot the outside shot well now, can get out in transition, and isn't too bad defensively.

Smith just jumped, maybe they lied

How did Caron just miss that layup? And terrible boxing out on defense

[mkwest]

This team has given a terrible and lazy effort to start this game.

[og15]

Those offensive rebounds are just falling into the Hawks hands, that's some terrible play, what is that? No one is even going after the ball

[mttwlsn16]

pitiful start, no energy whatsoever

As Scratch said, blame it on the alcohol.

[og15]

Great move by Blake, he's been the only one doing anything

DeAndre is really good at those clutch jumpshots, lol

[mkwest]

Blake is feeling it so far.

[og15]

Blake is feeling it so far.

He looks very confident with everything he's doing, and his jumpshot looks great. He must have been on fire in warmups. Also made a great pass to CP earlier.

Blake has hit 4 jumpshots in this game, 4/4

[LOJ]

wow blake

[mkwest]

BG has 16. He's had dunks, reverse lay-ups, jumpers. Hope he keeps it up.

[og15]

Blake took this game into his own hands, and he looks extremely confident with his outside shot. Maybe the new no hitch FT form he showed last game translated to his jumper feeling more fluid.

CP just killed the whole Hawks team, almost looked like he took an extra step though, lol

[mkwest]

What Paul just did is what I would like to see out of Bledsoe every now and then. Patience. Parker does it. Nash does it.

[og15]

Good job Mo, and again, Blake has really done a good job tonight on both ends. He's done decently well on his switches on to Joe Johnson defensively, and of course on offense he's been great.

I would have liked to see CP give Blake the ball on the end of quarter shot, just to reward him for the hot start he's had.
