The Boston Celtics – best record in the league, best trio in the league, best defensive coach in the league

The Atlanta Hawks -  worst playoff team, not much experience, and whatever
Who would have thought the 8th seeded team would take the 1st seeded team to 7 games?

Well that’s what happened in the 1st round of the 2008 NBA playoffs. I don’t think ANYONE would have suspected that. I’m willing to bet more than 90 % of fans thought it would only goto 4 or 5 games. But WTF!? Why the hell in gods grapefruit vine did it happen? OMG SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN, I DONT UNDERSTAND.

HAVE NO FEAR, ME IS HERE!

But to be honest I can’t quite explain what happened either.. All I can say is, the Hawks are a young team, and like other young teams, get streaks going when they are playing at home with an excited crowd.  They have runner-up rookie of the year Al Horford, a solid double double machine in just his rookie year, they have Mike Bibby, who is not exactly an allstar player but still a solid player that can shoot the rock. Then they got JJ( Joe motherfuckin Johnson), who is an allstar player, a great clutch shooter, a decent ballhandler, average passer, below average rebounder, but a very solid player, and can make lots of big shots when his team needs it. Then they got the one and only JOSH FUCKIN SMITH!!!!! The 2005 Slam Dunk Champ is known for his WILD jumping ability that allows him to block more shots than a 7 footer. He can slash, he can block, he can rebound, and he has a knockout punch.

SO ARE YOU SCARED OF THE HAWKS NOW??

oh wait, the Celtics already won game 7 and moved on to the second round.

Well, let’s congratulate the Hawks on a very good effort and a near upset.
