ROTATION: Starters -- Point guard Mike Bibby, Shooting guard Joe Johnson, Small forward Mo Evans, Power forward Josh Smith, Center Al Horford. Bench -- Guard Flip Murray, Guard Mario West, Forward Othello Hunter, Forward Solomon Jones, Forward/Center Zaza Pachulia.
PLAYER NOTES: --C Zaza Pachulia's footprint against the Celtics was miniscule compared to his actual size. He had five points and seven rebounds but was shoved around relentlessly inside by the Celtics' big men.
--G Flip Murray poured in 21 points off the bench, but only 12 of them came while the game was still in doubt. Murray's penchant for scoring binges late would be nice if they came a little earlier.
--G Mario West made another yet another spirited appearance for the Hawks but had no tangible effect on the outcome of the game. The Celtics are too good to be rattled by a defensive specialist like West.
MEDICAL WATCH:
--F Marvin Williams is out indefinitely with a lower back injury.
--G Acie Law IV is out indefinitely with a lower back injury.
