Well the celtics sweep the season series against Atlanta. It wasn't easy (except for tonight), but that's a great sign considering last year's play-off series against them, and the fact that the hawks are a better team this year than last year.
Kendrick, my favorite player, just denies fools like college and tallies SEVEN blocks tonight (and a huge one with 1:50 left in Double OT on 4/1). The guys over at Perkisabeast.com must be proud. Davis comes up with one with 2:23 left to play that absolutely resounded through the garden. Rondo continues to master the PG position, Pierce proves he still can only be stopped by two or more defenders and Ray Allen completely dispatches with some jungle-haired woman in the crowd. Ray Allen, after coming off an amazing double-OT against charlotte (during which, I would like to mention, he came up with what I consider to be one of the best steals of the year with 2:24 left and then immediately followed it up with a crucial three-pointer) had all the confidence in the world and hit key shots early which kept the game competitive. It would remain close until the fourth. The Celts kept the intensity up and Atlanta just petered out.
Overall, this is one of the better games the green has played this season. Low turnovers (relatively speaking), Mikki is improving noticeably game by game, same with Big Baby, Tony Allen came in and used that repaired thumb to totally strip a ball (good to see that it's healed). House continues to make shots and at this point I am surprised every time his jump shot misses. Marbury had a few great plays tonight on offense and defense... I mean, it's nice to be a celtics fan right now. I can't even think up a complaint.
After five (5) days of rest we get to burn the Nets like NBA Jam (YES ANOTHER NBA JAM REFERENCE) but for now, I'm going to go home.
Also, I would like to note that Orlando is handing Cleveland its collective ass on a mickey-mouse-shaped platter. They end up winning 116 to87 (hahahahaha).Source URL: http://ledger-heath.blogspot.com/2009/04/celtics-use-big-guns-and-shoot-hawks.html
