NBA shorts

Washington 88 vs. Cleveland 87
The last shots taken by Caron Butler and LeBron James were nearly identical. Each shot -- ugly as it was -- used the rim to try and get a friendly bounce. One went in. The other didn't. But credit both players for taking it in for the high percentage shot. Bron should have stuffed it though.

Boston 110 vs. Atlanta 85
The Hawks are this year's Golden State model and they're going back to Philips Arena to try and take care of business there. But unlike the spineless Dallas Mavericks, the Celtics aren't backing down.

Credit Atlanta coach Mike Woodson who played a solid yet low-key NBA career mostly with the Kansas City-Sacramento Kings for playing under the radar yet hard-nosed hoops.
