CNN —It appears that the Atlanta Hawks have the Boston Celtics’ number. On Monday night, Atlanta completed the biggest comeback in Hawks history when it came back from 30 points down to stun Boston, which has already locked up the No. Kevin C. Cox/Getty ImagesCeltics head coach Joe Mazzulla put his team’s loss down to the Hawks’ ability to grab offensive rebounds. “That’s the game right there,” he said postgame. The Celtics drop to 57-16 on the season and will next visit the New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday.

Doug McDermott was once traded by Indiana to San Antonio, and now, the Spurs have traded him back to the Pacers. Trade deadline day in the NBA gave them and plenty of other players an entirely new outlook, plus may have even reshaped the start of the playoff push as well. He and Alec Burks are headed to the Knicks, a team that entered Thursday a game out of the No. Defending NBA champion Denver didn't make a move on deadline day, nor did reigning East champion Miami, though the Heat did their trade-season work a couple weeks ago by bringing in Terry Rozier from Charlotte for Kyle Lowry. Adding to the challenge of deadline day is this: Only five teams entered Thursday more than four games out of the final play-in tournament spots in the East and West.

Young scored 41 points, then fed Dejounte Murray for a go-ahead 3-pointer with 31 seconds left to give the Atlanta Hawks a 120-119 victory over the Orlando Magic on Thursday night.
