I like it way better than on over-reffed game. It's just a little ridiculous.

With 7:45 left, the Hawks have taken 42 3-pointers, more than they did in any regular-season game. Just 26 for the Cs.

The rebounding numbers are a bit skewed. Atlanta, a team that doesn't usually take a lot of 3's, has taken 41 tonight to the C's 26. A whole bunch of them had 3 C's standing under the rim in perfect position, only to see some crazy bounce go over them.
In addition, the C's are absolutely locking in on trying to block shots. They have 11 blocks, a number of which resulted in offensive boards, and when they don't get the block, and TL comes out to challenge, it opens up the back side for an offensive board.
There's another example, a missed Murray 3 that caromed all the way back to the 3 point line.

That looked like their ball live
When Rob is in there, they just kind of gawk in awe and lose their fundamentals.
Which is why coasting on "Atlanta is Just Average" is a bad notion.
It is no longer an effective tactic because over the back and just plain old pushing the guy in front of you while rebounding no longer get called.
