Sizing up the Hawks series after an Atlanta win with Nick Gelso

The saying goes that you do not have a series in the NBA playoffs until a team wins a game on the road, and despite the fact that the Boston Celtics dominated Games 1 and 2 at home, the Atlanta Hawks showed signs of life on their own home court, winning Game 3 convincingly.

Have the Hawks found the formula to beat the Celtics, or was this simply a desperate team getting over on a ball club that dropped its guard just enough to be mortal after building a 2-0 series lead? Could Atlanta win another at home and draw the series out to six or even seven games?

What needs to change for a Boston series win, if anything? What went wrong in State Farm Arena on Friday night? And how is Boston's path to the finals looking in light of everything else happening around the league?

The hosts of the CLNS Media "Celtics Lab" podcast (powered by Fan Duel and BetterHelp) got together with the founder of the CLNS Media Network Nick Gelso to talk it over, as well as get caught up on news in the league more generally.
