Round 1, Game 1 - Saturday, 3:30 p.m. against TBD (does it matter? No, they're lambs to the slaughter regardless)

- Start date
Only going 8 and Hauser is a better matchup against the Hawks. Grant won’t play much.
I think HRB (?) correctly pointed out that this isn’ta Grant series. Hauser will get run against the Hawks but likely not the others
Big props to Snyder and staff for having his team well versed in flashing into the passing lanes in anticipation of our kick outs to the corner. This is the type of stuff you don’t see in the regular season. Very impressive how prepared they are in this area.
Clinical half. The Hawks will adjust though and I won't be surprised if this lead evaporates a bit.

Tied for their biggest lead (+30) at the half in team playoff history The other - the Memorial Day massacre of the Lakers in 1985

Celtics first half numbers per @cleantheglass Offensive rating: 139 points per 100 possessions (99th percentile) Defensive rating: 81.5 points allowed per 100 possession (99th percentile) About as close to a perfect half as you are going to see in the playoffs.

Yeah, the Hawks have done a nice job here. If they had some defense around the rim, we might be in a little trouble.
I was being a bit tongue-in-cheek, but I appreciate the data! Especially when it involves the Lakers.
Haha shit I didn't even think about that. Was so dumbfounded by the story they reported!
