I feel like this will be the most exciting series of round 1. They played a heck of a game on Saturday Night

@trojanfan12 you know what you have to do.

Celtics in 6 or 7

Neither team is all that consistent. I think Boston can pull off the upset but I wouldn't be surprised at either team winning.

 

[OregonDucks]

Celtics in 5.

It's playoff time...that means Atlanta goes fishing.

Boston in 7. This should be a really good series.

 

[CitySushi]

Celtics in 7. I agree with others that this is potentially the most interesting series. I have a feeling there will be a lot of inconsistency from both teams in this series.

Celtics in 5.

It's playoff time...that means Atlanta goes fishing.

We were in the ECF last year and nearly upset a #1 seed the year before that.

 

[Demonjoe93]

Regardless of who wins, I think this will go to seven games. I'll go homer and pick the Hawks.

ive been pretty vocal all year on how much i like the Celtics and their coach in the long run in the East....they have a lot of mental toughness which plays well in the playoffs. I would have picked the Celtics agains the Bobcats or Heat, but i think i gotta pick the Hawks.

The Hawks arent exactly known for their mental toughness but i think they have a sour taste in their mouth after getting swept in the ECF last year and are ready to play some good ball. They really have played great the last 2 months of the season. They have a lot of vets.

I definitely think this is the best series of the first round in the East- im gonna say Hawks in 7....but i have little faith in that pick.

If the Hawks come out soft and crumble under Boston's toughness Boston will win easily even though i think the Hawks have superior talent. I just think this is the Hawks series to lose if they show up.
