Yep! My Atlanta Hawks are on their way to Boston for game 7 after a fantastic win in Phillips Arena on Friday. In case you are under a rock or just haven’t heard, the Hawks won, 103 to 100. I read on the Hawks’ official site that the crowd was the biggest ever in the arena. Marvin Williams was the top scorer, wit 18 points, followed by Mike Biddy with 17 points. The Hawks game will air tomorrow, Sunday May 4 on ABC at 1 p.m.
