Game 7

Well folks, Friday night was an incredible evening and the Hawks pulled in the largest crowd in the history of the franchise in Atlanta. It was a tight game with the Hawks pulling it out at the very end with some outstanding play from Joe Johnson and Al Horford. The arena went wild and the whole town was talking on Saturday. Unfortunately, yesterday afternoon did not turn out quite the way we had hoped as the Celtics absolutely thrashed the Hawks in Boston and put the dream to bed for this season. Oh well, but what a storybook series and even though we lost badly yesterday, it still took the mighty Celtics 7 games to put us away. I'll therefore not take any grief from any Boston Celtics fan. Imagine. The best team in the NBA having to play 7 games to put away the Hawks! With Cleveland, Detroit and the Lakers waiting in the wings, I would not be so sure of the future and I sure as hell would be counting my lucky stars to have won the final game so convincingly. At least that puts some lustre back into their reputation.

Should have some pictures soon from the night and next season should be a blast assuming we get some help on one or two key positions.
