I know cause no heat fans showed up yet, but i expected that. I cant call the series because its a good matchup but i see the hawks taking one in cleveland and it depends on who wants it the most. The team with the most heart will win. If the hawks play the killer defense they played on miami then we will win but they have to get their confidence bustin out the gates tonight. Be the first to score.

I see blood on the court tonight aswell. The hawks are so underestimated so we will suprise cleveland tonight and an unsuspected series will happen. Let’s just wait and watch the game tonight.

LET’S GO HAWKS! GAME 1 SEMIFINALS!

Would love to see if you idiots come back tomorrow after the Hawks win tonight. Or will you just bring excuses?

haha, you gotta love all of the idiots who actually believe the hawks are going to win this series. the hawks have no intensity on the road and they are facing the best home team in the nba. my guess is that they get beat by 40 in the first game and by 50 in the second game. they might be able to get one on our home floor, but then its another blowout in game five. series and season done.

I think the hawks should double team Lebron and try to make everyone else beat them. If you take away Lebron you take away the offense.

You guys are hilarious. Way to support your team, though. The Hawks took 7 games to beat D-Wade, with a bad back, and the other 4 guys.

The Cavs are deep and experienced in the playoffs. They have the single greatest player on the planet. If the Hawks win one I will be surprised. Perhaps Game 4 at home?

It was a good run Hawks fans. I especially enjoyed your little piece on the Hawks vs. Cavs advantages. Are there really 10% of you that think Marvin Williams has the advantage over LeBron? There must be a lot of you just discovering that you still have a basketball team.

ALSO–the Cavs really only lost ONE game at home, that was to the Lake Show. We played our third stringers against Phili and took them to OT before losing.

The Hawks are a nice team but this is the deepest water they’ve treaded in many a year. Cavs are deep, rested, motivated and have the best HCA in the league. Not to mention a certain #23 who will be even more amped after winning MVP. Hawks will offer Cleveland a better challenge than Detroit, and are talented and athletic enough to take a game down in the ATL. But I gotta go w/ my hometown boys in five games.

LeBron has 4 years of experience at this stage of the playoffs. The Hawks do not. LeBron will control the game like a great chess game champion. The Hawks will make a few runs and may win one, possibly two. But in the end, they do not have an answer to the greatest basketball player on the planet, who is just entering his prime.
