The series, to the bewilderment of most of us, is now at 2-2 and going back to Boston. How much of a chance do you think the Hawks have of taking the series from the Celtics?

	I am giving them 30%. The Hawks are now my surrogate team since my Nuggets couldn't even pull one win out of their tail.

	I dont think they have any chance of winning the series. I think it is going to be REALLLL hard for them to win IN Boston.

	I'm with ya, DJ. They are going to be hard pressed to pull a game in Boston. Those fairweather fans (thanks Mike Bibby) really got to Atlanta and at least to me noticably affected their play. If the Hawks can deal with that they have a legit shot.

	The Hawks don't have a shot. All they have done is won at home, and they don't have home court advantage. They weren't even close in Boston--all the Celts have to do is hold serve--but I bet they close it out in 6. Though I have to say it is nice to see Atlanta win a couple and those playoff wins will go a long way in building on the future for this young team.

	10%. THey have to win in Boston. Not going ot happen. A great run and it should be very encouraging for a young talented team, but not a very good shot.

	The Hawks don't have a shot. All they have done is won at home, and they don't have home court advantageAll the Celtics have done is win at home, if you think about it if the Hawks play a close game in Boston their moral will be high for game 6 in Atlanta. If they pull that off you would think that they would have high hopes for upsetting the Celts in game 7. Boston as a team might have experience through certain players however collectively this is their first battle just as the Hawks.

	Home court advantage is obviously the key element here since both teams have been able to win both games at home. Unfortunately for the Hawks, the Celtics have homecourt advantage and I don't give them very much of a shot to win there. I can't count them out though because I didn't think they would win ANY games in Atlanta and that this series would be over by now.

	I almost all but guaranteed the Hawks would win game 3. 2 Boston blowouts and they fall asleep. But what I saw in game 4 was the Celtics beasting forward as expected and unexpectedly the Hawks fighting back. The pulled out of a 4th quarter defecet (sp). The fought a 16-3 firestorm. The Hawks showed the will to win. I never saw that in Atlanta EVER!!! Game 4 was a total shock. I say 30%. I think boston will regroup take care of business at home. Game 5 will go to Boston. Boston will also get game 7. Woodson may have justified his job.
