There was a bit of a hazy atmosphere to the Garden at the start of the game (thanks to the opening fireworks display, not any second-hand smoke from people celebrating the "holiday") ... However, it was looking like the C's were the ones suffering from a severe contact high, as they actually let the lowly Hawks get within two points early in the second quarter.

While it was just the second quarter, you could kind of tell that the crowd was getting a little antsy (I think New England fans are still a little gun-shy about "sure things" in sports, and will panic at the slightest hint that an upset is in the making) ... No worries, though, as the troops got over their early postseason jitters and eventually "settled" on an 104-81 victory (sports.yahoo.com).

Now we hafta wait until WEDNESDAY for Game Two? Awww ...
