HAHA. have you looked at the box scores? Horford didnt back up what he said to Paul Pierce. He went 1-6 from the field for 4 points. Pierce was 4-7 from deep.
Wait till they return to Boston. The celtics will show them whos boss.
But credit to the Hawks, they have shown some real fight. Good on them. Don't mind them actually, just dislike Al Horford.

Boston will still win the series regardless of how shit they have been playing so far. If losing back to backs doesn't act as a kick up the arse I don't know what does.

Horford didn't back it up.... bullsh*t he didn't. The rookie pulled in 13 rebounds which led both squads and the Hawks won the game... Can't back it up any better than winning the game.

If anyone is a b*tch out of this series it's Paul Pierce. The idiot just got fined $25,000 by the NBA for flashing a gang related gesture towards Horford.

Paul Pierce a bitch in the series? TR you're full of shit. He makes one hand signal towards Horford that the NBA determines is gang related after Horford gets a bit carried away after a play, of course emotions are gonna fly. What would you rather he did? Confront him and take a swing? Stand down and do nothing? In the heat of the moment, shit happens.

Go hawks, i hate paul pierce. He is hugely overrated.
Love it how M-Wills mentions his 3 point shooting but didnt mentione he was 5-14 from the field and 4-8 from the stripe. Id say he lost the game for boston, so in my book thats a win for Horford.

TC, have you seen the footage?????
Take a look:

PP let a rookie get under his skin. PP then walks towards the Hawks bench reaching 1/2 way after Horford is already down the other end of the court and makes a gesture towards Horford and the bench. Scalabrine then has to walk PP back to the Celtics bench.
PP is a so called veteran. The game was over, why bother with this rubbish. Let the rookie have his fun and then come out next game and beat his arse.
PP is one of my favorite players but what he did was stupid.

TR, I watched the entire game. I agree the game was over, but the series isn't! To me PP was just making a statement saying something along those same lines, ie, ' you got this one but the series isn't over yet'. I think he was trying to 'put him back in his place' and not let a rookie get the last word in on trash talking. He was upping the intensity a bit, nothing wrong with that, providing he gets the last laugh on the court in the end. He wasn't going to get suspended for the gesture and he knew it. Doesn't make him an idiot or bitch in my books.

Fair enough TC, but the move did cost him $25k... It wasn't necessary. As a veteran he should know that every dog has his day.
It's a little funny Pierce getting fired up by some trash talking. He's not to shabby at it himself. He's not in the Gary Payton league, but he holds his own.
