The Atlanta Hawks will look to exact some revenge on the Miami Heat on Tuesday when they face off in Game 2 of their first-round matchup. The Heat drew first blood in Game 1, taking down Trae Young and Co., 115-91, and Atlanta will be hoping to even out the series in Game 2.

Hawks star Trae Young revealed how his team intends to respond to the Heat's physical play from Game 1. According to the All-Star point guard, the Hawks have every intention of fighting fire with fire:

“It's my job and our team's job to really match it,” Young said on Miami's defense and energy, via Sarah K. Spencer of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “When a bully's trying to bully you, you don't just let them. You have to bully them back. That's how I feel and that's what we've got to do tonight.”

That's a pretty bold promise from Young, who along with his team, was on the receiving end of a deflating blowout loss in Game 1. Trae is hoping that it's a much different story for Game 2 because another loss would put them in a deep hole against a relentless Heat squad.
