Heard a funny story on CSN's pregame,
When Doc arrived in the NBA, bought a car not lame,
So he thought about his VW Rabbit--there was talk,
Ridicule from his teammates when he was a ...Hawk.
Harris, Teague, Smith, for the Hawks, each a three,
Paul Pierce For Three, second of the season for KG!
Cs picking on Korver using Jeff Green,
Wilcox a scoring AND blocking machine?
These words again, "Paul Pierce For Three!"
34 seconds left Q1 til the first foul by a C.
Double figures PP! Cs up 2 start Q2,
JET For Three; saw what Crawford can do!
Cs went on an 8-0 run,
Great ball movement, no one and done!
Hawks 14-4 run was ended by JET (three!) and PP,
Double figures JET! Cs up 5 start Q3.
Love when the ball is dead, other team takes a shot,
KG blocks it!--going into the hoop it is not.
AB struggling with his offense, still great D,
NO MORE TURNOVERS--please--by any C!
A thing of beauty is Lee hard to the hoop,
Gotta love the chemistry of this Cs group.
Cs playing zone, then playing man to man,
No one mixes up rotations the way Doc can.
Solid play, though he's quiet, Brandon Bass,
JET needs to stop doing that long one-handed pass.
Wow, crazy haphazard play both ends of the floor,
Pierce along the baseline, behind the hoop, finally--score!
Teague went coast to coast, coast to coast,
Up by 4 start Q4, the Cs, tonight's host.
Love a quarter that begins Crawford, then Green, For Three,
Horford not called for a foul tho on the head he slapped KG.
Green with a dunk, seemingly out of nowhere
Q4 Cs running down the clock because the shot isn't there.
Phantom fouls again on AB,
Refs don't recognize his brand of D.
Cs had a 12 point lead that got down to 3,
KG fumbled, but fouled, shot by Captain P.
Korver has a three (for the tie) now 54 games in a row,
Tie game--again--in the under-one-minute show.
Running the clock down is Captain P,
2.2 left, missed shot by KG and AB.
Easy rhyme:
OVERTIME.
In overtime the Hawks made a shot, then a shot,
Finally Pierce scored when to the hoop he got.
Then Green's ball bounced and bounced on the rim,
(held breath)--ah...score The Three for him!
Smith is having a night, season high, made a three.
Then a Deep Three For Captain P!
Foul on JET setting the screen,
JET For Three off the steal by Green!
9 straight wins at home,
End of this poem!
Celtic Pride,
What a ride!
Streaking....
