Official Playoff Game Thread: Celtics at Hawks -- GAME 3

[Diesel]

On a real serious note...

I think Quin has really won a lot of CONFIDENCE from Trae and DJ...   And Vice Versa.  This is great moving forward. 

 

A Win on Sunday will take away Boston's confidence.

I might be unto something. I had to listen on radio with Steve Holman and follow the boxscore....might hafta do that on Sunday as well to secure the win 

[givemesome1ce1]

A lot of “””fans””” were to completely give up on Trae Young…ready to trade him…WELL HERE HE IS!!!! HE HAD HIS BEST PLAYOFF GAME IN YEARS! GREAT IN THE CLUTCH, GREAT DECISIONS, HE IS BACK!! 
 

Murray had a great game as well…we can say that DJ and Trae both had great games for once. JC was great for the limited time he was in, Hunter did a good job limiting Tatum..Capela was great as usual. 
 

shoutout to the bench for stepping up in this game, Bogi was amazing, Bey with the hustle was great. Jalen was awesome and shot with confidence. Okongwu was awesome. 
 

really good win despite some defensive mishaps.

 

LETS TIE THE SERIES!! LETS GO HAWKS!!

Anyone notice Hunter got a little more feisty tonight on the dribble pulls up and attacking?

 

man IF he did that more often on both ends and just played like a bully ….we’d be in a completely different position. 
 

that one key thing would make us different. Guaranteed

I need him to be smarter though. 

Tonight, Bey's play made Hunter look expendable.  I need Hunter to step up Physically and Mentally on Sunday.

For Trade... 1 Elite Versatile defensive player. 

Call  Landry Fields...  1-562-682-3939

Horrible.

Been saying that 2019 draft set us back Big time..

2 top 10 picks.. Geez

"Wingstop" was always a fantasy......

The two touchstone plays for me were Trae backpedaling and deflecting the ball off Smart and grabbing an offensive rebound off Bey’s transition drive.  Even his biggest supporters can agree those type of plays happen far too seldomly: the type of plays that tip the scales in close games versus good teams.  Winning floor game from him tonight.

The Others were BIG TIME!

[AtLaS]

HUGE WIN for the team.  Now lets get to business.  We are out of our heads, we can beat the Celtics.

[Spud2nique]

OUR BENCH..

16-22 FG 

 

… wow…

is that right? 
 

That might be the highest fg performance by an Atlanta Hawks bench in any playoff game ever. @Diesel is it?

Damn bench mob was ready to roll.

[NBASupes]

Everyone should be happy tonight

Trae finally played like playoff Trae

Dre was a +10 and key defensively. f*** the bitch ass haters

The bench was back to RS form. 

Murray and Trae, good game on the same day. Ain't that some shit!

Good win

Dre played 35 min..

JC played 21..

Dre was bad but Quin still played him more than JC..

JC is definitely out of here..

I loved that drive that he had in the 4th.  Even though he missed the FT, it was still an aggressive move.

You know I’ll never hate your takes. Sometimes harsh, but you call out the good when you see it.
