Am I the only person around here who thinks ATL has a real shot against CLE?

How can you not love Charlotte? Probably my favorite team in the playoffs right now. Frank the Tank out here looking like Wisconsin's Kaminsky.

Yup, Hornets are going against Toronto in 2nd round right? *EDIT* Assuming both of those teams win, of course.

The Hawks have absolutely NO shot at winning even ONE game against the Cav's! Trust me on this one, I know. I've been watching the Hawks all year locally and I can tell you every strength and weakness they have....and they won't win a game against the Cavs! Although there defense has improved from the team that won 60 games last year, there offense has deteriorated to the point of being so inconsistent that unless they can hit 50% of there 3 pointers they are going to get smoked all 4 games! Plus, the have a propensity for unforced turnovers and the Cav's will create a lot of turnovers! Lebron will go to the line 15 times a game, and there's no way the NBA would let the Hawks advance even if they shot 60% from 3 point line! The Hawks don't rebound all that well, there bigs spend more time launching 3's than doing anything else, and they just don't have enough AA to compliment there basketball brains! There 2nd in the league in number of Assists per game, but there shot selection goes south quickly with there obsession with taking 3 pointers!
 
if Charlotte pulls this out this is an all-time performance by Kemba Walker.
 
wonder what would've happened if we drafted walker instead of kancer

Walker playing great, but at the end of the day they have been running 4 minutes of isolation plays for a 6' tall player. He is hot, but that isn't a sustainable model for winning.
 
Dwyane Wade doing Wade things. Sheesh. topping Kemba from having his historic night.
 
the refs have been brutal against Charlotte throughout the 2nd half.


What a total bummer. I hate the Heat.
 
There is only so much you can do as a 6' scoring guard.

scoring 37 in a game 6 is only "so much"?

Charlotte lost because no one else on their team could hit shots, along with Wade hitting his first threes since December.

They werent even setting anyone up to take shots in the final 4 minutes of the game. It was like watching the Jazz in the final minutes of games. Everything stagnates and relying too much on tough shot making.
