My Atlanta Hawks beat the Knicks to take a 3-1 lead in the Eastern Conference first round. Now it was time to root for another 5th seed to upset the 4th in the Western Conference.

It was great to be at the American Airlines Arena for Game 4 of the playoff series with the Clippers. Even though I’m not a big Mavs fan, I love the game of basketball – it’s fast paced, a lot of action and full of energy.

So I got to hang out with hundreds of Mavs fans at the PNC Plaza just outside American Airlines Center

And when the game started I watched all the action inside Hero and my new found friends.

The Mavs lost and the series is now tied 2-2. I stopped at Dick’s Last Resort for dinner, then I walked towards the JFK Memorial where my truck is parked to spend the night.
