I (and David Stern) sure as hell hope so.

What a joke in Atlanta right now, they are seriously using a stopwatch and countdown as the shot clock since one of them is out of operation.

Then the Celtics are called with a clearly incorrect shot clock violation, the officiating in the NBA really is a joke sometimes.

Then they have a spite call on Garnett when he doesn't even touch anybody, it's just ridiculous. The Hawks are playing a great game but some of this nonsense really shouldn't be allowed to happen in the playoffs.

Atlanta might win? wtf?

Yeah Hawks are gonna get a game in this series, I really didn't expect that to happen.

Although with Johnson, Smith, and Horford they have a better young team then alot of people give them credit for.

Celtics look frazzled, I don't think they expected this much of an effort from the Hawks after the lazy performances in the first 2 games.

It won't really matter much, cause the Celtics won't take them for granted in game 4 and I can't see the Hawks getting another game.

And now the shot clocks are working again, that whole stopwatch thing was ridiculous and I think kinda rattled both teams a little bit.

The officiating in this 2nd half has been atrocious, the Celtics cannot get any calls. Even in the games in Boston, it seemed like Atlanta was getting the calls.(Still losing by 20 tho)

Not to take anything away from Atlanta, they deserve to win this game going 10-15 from 3 and everything.

But playoff officiating needs to be better than this.

The C's lost to the Hawks tonight. The Hawks got there one win. I love how they won one game and they make it look like they won the NBA championship.

lol, Well for a team like the Hawks to beat a team like the Celtics when this was supposed to be a "school yard ball" series for the C's. Hawks deserve to celebrate like that

I've never seen a team choke and lose as much in the first round as the Rockets. It's hilarious and sad at the same time.

Hawks beating on the Celtics like that was pretty surprising. Not to say it was luck, but it was definitely a spur of the moment thing for the Hawks.
