    Yep, another one off of JJ's missed fade away jumper. Anyone else see this? Just before that VC tied the game with a 3. Josh Smith flew out of nowhere from the side and slammed it down.

    That was awesome! After VC hit the 28-footer to tie it, I just assumed this would end up another game where the Magic would torment the Hawks again.

    Good, confidence-building win for the Hawks. I look forward to their 2nd round series with the Magic.

    magic will win in 5... orlando was terrible and still almost pulled out this win.

    joe johnson traveled his ass off too... but shard still should have boxed out.

    That was tight sauce. JJ took 3 steps but I doubt officials would call a travel on a close game last possession, especially on the home team.

    Also I thought the NBA don't call travels anymore unless it's like 6 steps...

    Well, Carter did hand check him. 10 years ago that's a no call. Nowadays who knows when they call it.

    Fact is he still traveled. Even if they missed the hand check foul.

    You and me both. Wow, what a finish and shame on the Magic for giving up on the play.
