Randy Wittman. 5-0 in the playoffs. First coach to win 4 straight opening series games on the road. Best playoff road record in NBA history.

 

Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!

I don't know how to explain this win other than the heart that this team displayed today. Led by the fearless leader... Johnathan Hildred Wall, Jr

 

One explanation is the defensive adjustment they made at half.  They stopped aggressively collapsing and stayed home on shooters.  It totally disrupted Atlanta's ball movement and forced them into more individual play.  They don't have the star power for that kind of basketball.  Great adjustment by... can't believe I'm saying this... Randy Wittman.   

 

But in order to do that with our best players either in pain (Wall Beal) or mentally absent (Nene) takes a lot of will power.

What an amazing, gutsy team wi!! They were behind the majority of the game but were never phased by their runs or threes. We stayed tenacious and played defense. John Wall was a determined leader who played through pain and kept dishing and keeping his team involved. Top 5 PG in the league.

I was really scared when Beal went down and went crying to the locker room. Big Panda has some serious heart to come back and still chase Korver off the 3-pt line. Even before the injury he was having a career playoff scoring game. Hope he heals and rests up.

Pierce, Gortat, and Porter all had great solid games. Saw on Twitter all three had double doubles. Porter continues to impress and excite me with his scoring prowess, defense and rebounding. What a gem he's turned out to be.

Ramon Sessions has also been a great back-up PG who pushes the tempo and gets to the bucket. Very under-rated addition.

I was very unsure of this game for the Wiz but they hit a different level in the 4th quarter. Love how we continue to play hard and get wins on the road. Salute to Wittman
