It is not surprising that the Celtics won this series. The Celtics ended the regular season with the 2nd best record in the league, while the Hawks ended with the 17th-best. The Celtics also beat the Hawks all 3 times that they played each other in the regular season.
It's a little surprising that the Hawks were even able to win 2 games in this playoff series.
Unsurprisingly, Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown were the best players for the Celtics throughout the series.
In these 6 games.

27.2 Points
5.3 Assists
10 Rebounds
45.3% of shots made
Brown Averaged:
