Boston wins Game Seven

Yes, Boston beat the eighth seeded Hawks.99-65, to win the series and to mark their first game seven win since 1988, a game coincidentally against the Hawks back whe Bird Parish and Mchale were the big three. They made phenominal adjustments on the defensive end, puttin pressure in the paint. Celtic legend Bill Russell will tell you that's how it's done. Body language was apparent throughout the contest with Williams hitting Rando with a hard flagrant in the third and Garnett foulling hard when the Hawks were taking the ball out. The Celtics simply did not allow the Hawks in the paint and forced them to shoot jumpers, which the Hawks had no success with. They held the Hawks to just four free throw attempts in the first half. Boston is learning early in the playoff what kind of approach is neccessary for teams they can't match in various aspect of the game-Atlanta's athleticism being one of them. They may have to go to this same defensive approach when they face the explosive Lebron and the Cavs on Thursday. The thing is though, Cleveland can hit some of the jumpers the Hawks would miss. Readers what do you think? Do the Celtics have the defense to withstand Lebron and the Cavs?
