Worst team threatens the best

Somehow the Atlanta Hawks have won two straight games an evened up their best-of-7 game series with the Boston Celtics 2-2.
I don’t know how this happened.
The lowly Hawks are the worst team record wise in the playoffs. I never thought they’d even come within 10 points of winning a game against the Celtics.
My friend Brian is a big fan of anything Atlanta sports and he sent me a text message following the game last night that said “How bout my Hawks now.”
Well good for them, they won two games at home. But I’m not scared as he kindly suggested. In the playoffs, a team is supposed to win at home, so no worries. The Celtics have home court advantage and will win at home. So, worst-case scenario the Celtics win in seven, but they still win.
I think the Hawks definitely have Boston on its heels, but there’s no way the Celts drop the series, I mean come on, let’s be real, the Hawks aren’t even a .500 team. They’re just a bunch of punks playing prison ball out there.
My friend Zack also text messaged me about the series. He’s a big Celtics fan too. I think he’d agree with me that we’re surprised, but not worried.
