i think the celts were looking past atlanta already, just like detroit was looking past philly. i believe that is the main reason of this letdown, all the other problems are just stemming from it. they should go back to that "one game at a time" mantra they have been preaching this season.

I'm very upset by this:
To make matters worse for the Celtics, it's possible that Garnett and Kendrick Perkins could be suspended for Game 5 for their involvement in a second-quarter skirmish last night. Hawks forward Marvin Williams also is in jeopardy.
After a loose rebound with 7:24 left in the half, a frustrated Garnett gave Atlanta center Zaza Pachulia an elbow after the play was dead. Pachulia retaliated with what appeared to be a head butt. Players on both teams began to bunch up and mouth off, but the coaches ran on the floor to separate them.
Pachulia was given a foul and technical foul while Garnett, Johnson, and Boston's Sam Cassell were assessed technicals.
Replays showed Garnett shoving referee Ed Rush, and Perkins and Williams went on the floor from the bench, which usually means an automatic one-game suspension.

they will suspend KG, and Perk, now without big man, we are very weak against this athletic team

The League office has said that they won't suspend any players for game 5. No suspensions and no fines. Very good news.

I thought the 'Hawks would win one game, when J2 took over. He did, and they won. On to the next game.
