Trae and Dejounte are the 1st pair of Hawks teammates to each have 25 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in the same playoff game since 1966!
Spurs just wasted a very good talent like him.
Clean stare down
I'm not a Hawks fan, but this victory from them at home was very important cuz they avoided playing the next meeting being under 3-0 against Celtics.
And clearly, that would have been a huge kick for the rest of this series.
That was such great games from both Trae and Dejounte Murray
And they needed one of these games to have a legitimate chance tonight and they brought it
Trae 32 and DMurray with 25 , this was his best game in this series 💯💯💯💯💯💯
That’s the Hawks we watch and love let’s go Hawks put that pressure on Boston win baby
