Recap: Atlanta 111, Cleveland 108 (or, Vinced & Burked)

This was a fun one, Cavs fans. Cleveland battled back from an 11 point early first quarter deficit to tie the game, only to be done in by missed free throws, bad execution, and an inability to rebound as they were edged out in the final minute by Vince Carter and the Atlanta Hawks. Vinsanity was in the air in Atlanta as the 41 year old Carter turned back the clock for a monstrous 21 point four rebound performance on only 11 shots in 23 minutes. Trae Young also led Atlanta with a 21/3/9 line in 34 minutes as Cleveland entertained but couldn’t get over the hump.
