Brandon Jennings thinks the Hawks went into Game 3 on Saturday expecting to blow out the Bucks.

Instead, Milwaukee thumped Atlanta 107-89 at the Bradley Center to avoid falling into an 0-3 hole heading into Game 4 on Monday.

"I felt like they were a little bit cocky," the rookie point guard said Sunday.

"They came in like, 'OK, it's Milwaukee, we're up 2-0.' I mean, that's just how I felt. I felt like they thought they were just going to come in and just blow us out. I think with the crowd, and the way we came out, it just changed everything."

Hawks guard Jamal Crawford admitted that they underestimated how fueled the Bucks would be by their home crowd.

Milwaukee took a 36-19 lead in the first quarter.

"Yeah ? not THAT hot," Crawford said. "That's tough to prepare for. You know they're going to come out and play their best game. Their backs were against the wall. They lose that game, they're down 3-0."
