Dejounte, you’re down 2-0 and you’ve been curb stomped twice. Maybe calm down with the pointing

Jaylen was lost there, really bad decision. Take is ok, finding AL ok....pulling back with a 3-2 advantage not good

This feels like coming down to the Celtics missing a few wide open threes over the last few minutes while the hawks drilled a couple in the corner with hands in their faces.

Good job Foster!

This is an example of a Technical Foul for unsportsmanlike conduct for a physical taunt. Following the made free throw, Hassan Whiteside makes dead-ball contact with his opponent, Marquese Chriss, in a taunting manner. This is an unsportsmanlike act, and a technical foul would be assessed for a physical taunt. The taunting of opponents is never permitted, and actions of this nature are to be penalized immediately.”

Should be the wake-up call for Sunday that the Hawks are still an NBA team.

Can’t be mad at this loss. If Atlanta is going to hit these shots, you just tip your cap.

If they lose.

Exactly. Hawks have made tough shots. Celtics have been dog shit…and it’s still a close game.

Just one loss. Series will still be over in 5

The failure to play good ball in the fourth quarter bothers me more than the loss. No stops, weak rebounding. Offense ok---but not great. Need more late, it's not just the Hawks shooting (which I agree..we won't see again)

I also hate how there’s two days off between games 1 and 2 but only 1 between games 4 and 5

Hawks outrebounding C's 47-29.
Yep, that’s the stat. All the rest is window dressing.

In the fourth quarter those minute long possessions where you give the other team three chances are just too much.
