The Atlanta Hawks won Game 4 last night of their series with the Philadelphia 76ers to even the series at 2-2.
We saw the toll of a long and demanding series on a few stars as Trae Young had his shoulder taped up and Joel Embiid ran out of gas in the 2nd half setting a record he didn't want to set.
There's certainly been no shortage of physical play, a few knocks suffered to both teams, but the final result of the series may not come down to just who can be effective at less than 100%
Atlanta Hawks General Manager Travis Schlenk joined John and Hugh after the Game 4 victory and spoke about the remaining three games in the series and how it's not about physical toughness, but being mentally tough at this stage.
"When you get to this point of the playoffs everybody is starting to get banged up, everybody's got bumps and bruises," says Schlenk. "It's well documented what Joel (Embiid) is playing through, but now, this week, it's every other day and travel in-between, so it's a test both physically, but also mentally being able to play through that."
