Celtics (24-15) at Hawks (22-16) Game #40 1/13/17

I'm genuinely impressed by Jamal Crawford on the pregame show. Very professional, mature, and well-spoken. He did not seem to be that type of player to me prior to this.

I unfortunately have to watch Hawks live pregame show.

I live in TN and have the Hawks as my home team along with the Grizzlies.  Just doesn't make much sense.

Do you not have ESPN?

Somewhat surprisingly the celtics are small underdogs this game according to vegas.

Just a note: Atlanta's winning streak may be inflated. Of their 7 games win streak, one team was above .500 (Spurs, won by 2)

Beating the spurs is probably more impressive than winning 3 games against the bucks, pacers or hornets. Winning 4 games in a row on the road is also impressive for any team.

My inner pessimist hopes this L is quick and painless.

Doubt it. I'm in ATL, though, and can guarantee that if the Cs win I will be looting the streets.

Probably due to injuries I would guess.

For real. They're borderline the worst in the league, right up there with Cleveland's announcers.

EDIT: So local broadcasts aren't blacked out when the game is nationally televised? I've never lived in an NBA market with them on regular tv. I thought it was the same as with League Pass.

Hope you're right.  Cs always seem to have more dramatic Ls to ATL for some reason. Maybe I'm mis-remembering / drunk again, tho
