I will readily admit, was never a fan because of all the 'stuff' and never wanting to play in Atl before.
However, once he signed and wore a Hawks Jersey I gave him a clean slate.
I understood what he would give us (rebounding and defense) while also realizing the offense would be tweaked.
He has exceeded my expectations so far so yes I'm happy with Dwight.

Hawks are 2nd in the NBA now in rebound (after being the worst rebounding team the last 3yrs) and Boston is now the worst rebounding team in the NBA

I thought for sure ATL would lose this game after getting the big win over CLE the day before. I'm hoping they don't take Philly lightly Saturday. Every game counts.
