KEY GAME INFORMATION
ATLANTA: BACKCOURT: Long-time starting PG Jeff Teague is gone to Indiana, and Dennis Schroder will take over the job in his fourth NBA season. He's ready to do so, but his improvement is still essential to the team's success. G/F Kent Bazemore impressed in his first season with an expanded role last year, and he and Schroder form a formidable defensive backcourt. SG Kyle Korver dipped below 40% from three last year, and a rebound would be huge for this offense. . . . FRONTCOURT: It's a homecoming for Atlanta native C Dwight Howard, who arrives with many questions about where he fits in the pecking order of NBA centers and on the roster of this particular team. He can still dominate in the deep post, but his presence may mark the end of the pace-and-space style that's defined HC Mike Budenholzer's time as coach. PF Paul Millsap is one of the NBA's most underrated'he dropped 45 in a playoff game six months ago. . . . BOTTOM LINE: While fans are familiar with the players replacing Teague and Horford in the Hawks' once-dominant starting five, both Schroder and Howard represent downgrades at their position. If things don't go smoothly, Millsap could be traded.
BOSTON: BACKCOURT: It's hard to believe PG Isaiah Thomas was once a bench player for this team, as he proved himself to be the lifeblood of the Celtics offense in making the All-Star team last year. In SG Avery Bradley and PG Marcus Smart, Boston has two of the best defending guards in the league. If Smart can learn to shoot as well as Bradley, his ceiling goes up considerably. Second-year PG Terry Rozier took strides over the summer and will see minutes this season. . . . FRONTCOURT: While Danny Ainge couldn't quite lure KD to Boston, C Al Horford is by no means a consolation prize. He fits perfectly in the offense and instantly becomes the team's best player. SF Jae Crowder is the perfect mentor for rookie SF Jaylen Brown, as both are gritty defenders with the ability to put the ball in the basket. People seem to have forgotten about PF Kelly Olynyk, who's become a better offensive player every season. . . . BOTTOM LINE: The Celtics added a four-time All-Star and an NBA-ready rookie to a team that won 48 games last season. Throughout his career, Brad Stevens has led his teams to overachieve. It will be interesting to see what that means for a Boston team that's now loaded with talent.
PREVIEW
Celtics return home after road split to face Hawks
 

BOSTON -- After avoiding what would have been a fourth three-game losing streak on Sunday in Detroit, the Boston Celtics aim for their seventh straight home victory with the Atlanta Hawks in town on Monday night.

The Celtics (38-21) blew a 17-point lead and lost at Toronto in their first game back from the All-Star break on Friday night, then failed to hold a 15-point advantage (because of turnovers) against the Pistons before winning Sunday.

"It was a back-and-forth, tough game," Celtics coach Brad Stevens said after his team's 12th victory in the last 15 games. "They made big plays. It's a hard team for us to ."

Isaiah Thomas scored 33 points -- his 43rd straight 20 point game -- and Jae Crowder added 14 points, 11 rebounds and five assists in the victory.

Rookie Jaylen Brown, not known for his outside shot, nailed a big 3-pointer that actually triggered a five-point possession with the team down one with 37.6 seconds left.

"I've worked on my shot because that's what people have been critiquing me on my whole life," said Brown, who finished with 13 points, five rebounds and two steals. "And I think I've gotten better at it."

The Hawks have lost three in a row and four of their last five to fall to 32-26. They lost by 19 at Orlando on Saturday night.

Atlanta is 10-10 in its last 20 games and 23-24 after opening the season on a 9-2 run.

"We don't want to be a .500 team," coach Mike Budenholzer said Saturday night. "You have to go out on the court and execute on both ends of the court. At the end of the day, if it's 20 games and we are .500 we have to be honest with ourselves and find ways to improve whether it be small things or big things."

Hawks guard Dennis Schroder said, "First off, we have to get together with the team. We are not there. Everybody has to be together. We have to play together as a team. We are going to see."

Schroder didn't start Saturday night's game after showing up late for the team bus. He entered the game after 7:03.

The last time the Celtics and Hawks met, Thomas won the game with a jumper with two seconds left and Schroder later accused Thomas of saying bad things about his mother -- a charge Thomas denied. Monday night is the second of three games in the regular season between the teams. The Hawks knocked the Celtics out of last year's playoffs in the first round.

That first meeting marked the first game for Boston's Al Horford against his former team and he was upset when the Atlanta crowd booed him.

In the last three games, Horford, who signed a huge free agent deal with the Celtics during the summer, has scored just 19 points and grabbed 16 rebounds, going 8 of 26 from the floor.

On Sunday, the Hawks waived bench player Lamar Patterson, who was allowed to leave the team to attend to a personal matter. He signed two 10-day contracts earlier this season and recently signed a two-year deal.

On Sunday night, the Atlantic Division-leading Celtics benefited from the Pistons going just 16 of 35 from the foul line. On Monday night, they face a team that is 38 of 62 from the line in the last two games.

Boston, which hosts the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday night, has been without Avery Bradley for 22 of the last 23 games because of an Achilles strain. But he is getting close.

"Avery's going to go through his stuff today, and I think we're any day now," Stevens said before Sunday's game. "He will not play tonight, but, yeah, we're excited about Avery's progress."
