Horford, young Hawks confident vs. Celts (AP)
Published 4/27/2008 at Yahoo! Sports - NBA News
Al Horford got right in Paul Pierce's face, then hopped away to the Hawks bench. The Boston star wasn't too thrilled with the rookie's bravado. Pierce flashed a hand gesture toward Horford and attempted to stare him down. Did Horford back off? Hardly. The Atlanta center thumped his chest and yelled back at Pierce, who was finally dragged back to the Celtics bench.
