Celtics just beat the Hawks

[atljonesbro]

This team needs a break and Pero needs to be cut right away. He is flat out useless

Yeah, they've played tons more games than everyone else.

That Thabo injury sure hit hard. You're bound to start dropping games when you lose a top notch player like him.

Not a big deal.

How the hell did this happen? I checked the score at one point and the Hawks were up by 20ish.

[Hotlantadude81]

They said they traded Payne because they couldn't find playing time for him... Not enough playing time at the PF/C spots.

Maybe it's time to find playing time for all of those good big men.

[Hotlantadude81]

Not a big deal.

4 L's in 7 games.

4 L's in 7 games.

3 losses

Just a subpar stretch before the all star game, they're tired and you can't win every game

Still 43-11, keep hating

Ah I figured Hotlantadude would be rearing his hideously ugly head in here tonight. Nowhere to be found after the Minny game but here he is.

Bad loss tonight, I'll admit it, but kudos to the Celtics for sticking it out.

I guess I'll chalk this one up to our guys looking ahead to All-Star weekend

I've been here after plenty of wins. If I don't show up after everyone game the "He is never here when we win" crap comes out.

The win against Minny wasn't all that impressive.

You will chalk up to that because you want to ignore reality.

Atlanta was going to have a rough patch too and have one of these games.

Of course a Minny win is never all that impressive, but a single loss to the Celtics isn't something to throw a white flag at.

We're 43-11 heading into the break, if you're complaining about that then you're, well, you're Hotlantadude

They've already had these games.... One against the Hornets... One against the Lakers.... One against Orlando and one against the Bucks.

They've been playing like crap for about 3 weeks.

3 losses in the last 4 road games.

Indiana was great the all star break last year.
