A lot of praise for a team that struggled to get past the Wizards. Atlanta is a good team but they are incredibly overrated IMO. They're slightly better than Chicago but a team we have far better match ups against.
Can they beat us? Sure. Will they? If Kyrie is 80%, we beat them IMO. I don't care how good Caroll is. I can't imagine LeBron is going to shoot near 40% in another series.
Just out of curiosity how do you figure that we have better matchups against the Hawks?
The Hawks basically eliminate Mozgov due to the skillsets of Horford and Millsap, and with our already truncated front court unit we are going to see a ton of minutes on 7 guys.
Matchup-wise the bulls bigs aside from Pau played much more to our strengths without Love.
Get ready for a good dose of Jones and It wouldn't completely shock me for Marion to get some minutes... I expect a lot of small ball with TT at the 5.
