THE HAWKS ALMOST SHOCK THE WORLD!

The powerhouse Boston Celtics had finally eliminated the surprising Atlanta Hawks in game 7 of their Eastern Conference first round play-offs via a whopping 99-65 rout! But coach Mike Woodson and his bunch of gritty boys had nothing to be ashamed of! Imagine extending the top-seeded Celtics to the limit, whew!

At the end of game 6 wherein the Hawks pulled even in the series, 3-3, after a heart-stopping 103-100 victory at the Philips Arena, I noticed an ATL fan holding a signboard "SHOCK THE WORLD!", well they almost did. But the experience of the title-favorite Celtics is too much for the young Hawks as evidenced by the winning margin of the deciding game. But I and the rest of the NBA world take our hats off to this up-and-coming team. A team consists of young turks in Al Horford, Josh Smith, Josh Childress, Marvin Willams and veteran snippers Mike Bibby and Joe Johnson, it is widely believe that come the next NBA season, the Atlanta Hawks shall be a team to reckon with! Mark my word on that dude!
