Back to Boston

For those (very few) of you who are following the NBA playoffs, a potential thriller awaits on Sunday (1pm EST), when the Atlanta Hawks fly back to Boston for gave 7 in a first round context that was supposed to be 3 and out. Last night's game was a lot of fun to watch, with the Hawks coming from behind to win 103-100, and fending off a last second, potentially tying basket by the talented Celtics. Commentators are saying that, if the Hawks can win, it will be the biggest upset in NBA playoff history. Of course, the "odds" are not good for an Atlanta victory (the Celtics have beaten the Hawks by an average of 22 points in Boston this season and in the playoffs). But the dream is still alive, even if tomorrow it gets buried. Regardless, I love an underdog story. And this qualifies. If you are interested, you can follow the story here.

UPDATE: The Hawks got spanked today (Sunday) in Boston. Ouch!
