Cavs: vs Hawks - 2016 Playoffs - Eastern Semifinal Series Thread

[Kawhitstorm]

I feel bad for whatever team maxes out Al Horrible tbh

Horace Grant > Horse

[Kawhitstorm]

Hopefully, Horford won't get outplayed by Mozgov. (Mozgov is out of the rotation so Tristan is going to eat his lunch)

[~O~]

I don't think anyone watch this series. Not even ATL fans should be able to stomach this. The Hawks came all this way just to choke and lose to cleveland once again.

Tristan Thompson ting on ATL's bigs.

[D-Wade]

Reggie is a dumbass

ATL with the comeback...

[DPG21920]

I have no idea how ATL is in this game. Losing 3PT battle, shooting worse and CLE hasn't turned it over much. Big plays from Millsap and they need to get over the "hump" and get that lead.

Reggie, how on Earth do you not know this rule yet? I mean, damn, it's only happened several times THIS PLAYOFF.

[DPG21920]

Damn, Millsap missed that good look. Sometimes during a comeback you hit that point total or lead that you just never see get conquered.

You mean ford? (Millsap is going beast-mode on the offensive boards/defense)

[Spurs9]

Actually a great game

[davethedope]

Atlanta will blow this tho. No closers.

[DPG21920]

Dis getting gud

[DPG21920]

Baze taking the last two looks and not really close. The first one was a bad shot, but the second was a nice transition corner 3.

[DarrinS]

Sphincter tightening in Cleveland

[Kawhitstorm]

Actually a great game

Schroder raw dogged the Australian bum

[DPG21920]

Kyle, come on man.

Cavs in 6. The Hawks will put up a better fight. They are a significantly better defensive team than last year. I wouldnt be surprised to see the Hawks upset the cavs. A few things ATL should focus on.

1. Keep the rebounding battle. I expect tristan thomposn to eat his lunch and i expect the cavs to dominate the boards. If ATL can keep it close, it will be interesting. Need to be extra focused on boxing out.

2. Attack Kyrie and Love on the Pnr/Pnp

3. If horford and millsap can have decent shooting games, it might force CLE to reduce thompson minutes.

4. Dont overract on Lebron Jumpers. One on One with Bazemore should be fine. Keep an eye on the shooters instead.

People really think atlanta is still the same team from last year. Like I said, this is a better team than last year. Great defensive team. Different philosophy.

[Spurs9]

I love shrooder, this dude plays hard

[DPG21920]

JR has shot ridiculous from 3 this playoff. Just unreal.

[Spurs9]

Bazemore gonna lose this game for hawks

[Spurs9]

Or maybe win it if love actually got hurt there

[MultiTroll]

Or maybe win it if love actually got hurt there

Yep. Brazemore definitely aimed for the surgical shoulder and hit it.

[Spurs9]

Hawks throwing this game away
