With star guard Dejounte Murray out and facing a hostile Boston crowd, not many believed in the Hawks’ ability to win Tuesday night’s Game 5 to extend the series and send the action back to Atlanta.

Game 6 will take place Thursday, but, as fate would have it, there was another event scheduled to take place in the building that night: a Janet Jackson concert.
