This is going to be a whole different ballclub than we saw last year during the regular season," Pierce said. "It’s going to be more like the team we saw in the playoffs. We have to come with our ‘A’ game or we won’t be walking out of there with a win. The way they’re playing at home (9-1), they ’re playing at a high level." Hawks.com currently offers a chance to watch highlights from last season's Celtics-Hawks playoff series. The video describes tonight's game in Atlanta as a 'renewed rivalry.' If you didn't know better, you would have thought the Hawks won the first-round matchup. "We were talking about [the website]," Ray Allen said. "I'm sure it's been up there for a couple of days. We are really looking forward to it. Atlanta is ready and waiting and they've been promoting this for a while. The building is going to be a playoff atmosphere so we need to go down there with a different mind-set." Said Hawks guard Mike Bibby: "I don't know if you call it a rivalry. But they probably don't like us and we probably don't like them. And you can go all the way down the line and know it's going to be a battle every time we see each other." --
