The Atlanta Hawks seemed to have forgotten that they are the Atlanta Hawks. How else do you explain their performance last night in game 2 against the Celtics? Joe Johnson put together the best performance of the playoffs this year (messing around and going for 20 of his 35 in the 4th quarter), leading the underdog Hawks to a 97-92 victory.
The most amazing part of the game wasn't just Johnson. It was how the Hawks really believe they can hang with Boston--they won't back down. But it should be interesting to see how they respond when they head to Boston for game 5.
I'm pretty sure the entire city of Atlanta considers this a victory--regardless of what the Hawks do the rest of the series. Seriously though, who would've thought Boston and Detroit would be tied at 2-2 in their respective series?
