Holy cow the Hawks coach has a mean goatee. That thing is ridiculous.

This game got UGLY.

Both teams making dumb turnovers and not hitting anything.

72-72 in the 4th. Hawks outplayed the Cavs in the 3rd, despite the 20-20 score in the period. Cavs had a lead of 10 and completely went away from everything that got them the lead.

Game is up for grabs now. Who ever can actually execute the offense and stop turning it over will win.

Did the play by play guy just say Mo Williams got a rubber rim job?

It's Earth week. A lot of players are wearing green headbands/armbands, etc..

The warm up t's also have the team logo in green too.

I just saw that other players had it too. I just tuned into the game and only saw Lebron with it at first.

And just like that, the Cavs are up 8.

Team defense has been GREAT in this 4th.

I flipped it over to espn and the first thing I hear is this talking about how the hawks should feel like they can beat the cavs. Nothing about the cavs locking down on d. Fuck espn... I'm starting to get on the hate espn bandwagon.

That tone quickly changed lol.

They started talking about how this kind of loss is even worse than getting blown out and that just when you thought the Hawks could finally beat the Cavs, a blanket went over them lol.

Cavs could clinch the #1 seed in the east and in the NBA tonight.

Magic are losing in the 4th to San Antonio.

Lakers also have to lose to Utah tonight for the Cavs to clinch #1 overall.

Excellent D in the fourth. Z with 6 o-boards. Mo agressive as hell both offense and defense. Hawks went cold with 6/7 minutes to go but a lot of that attributable to the defense.

How the hell ESPN can even breath a statement like the Hawks could beat the Cavs with AV and Shaq not even suited up is beyond me.

Cleveland clinched #1 spot in EC tonight beating the Hawks without Shaq or AV.
