Raptors next on Hawks' difficult slate

The schedule doesn't get any easier for the Atlanta Hawks.
The Hawks host their first back-to-back home games on Saturday when Toronto comes to Philips Arena for the first time this season.
Atlanta (4-15) broke a three-game losing streak on Friday by beating the New York Knicks 116-104. The win lifted the Hawks out of the Eastern Conference cellar.

Raptor fans says that whoever our SG is DeRozan will make them look like Michael Jordan, is he that bad defensively?
I noted Baze is our SG so if he looks like Jordan, Raptors are in serious trouble, lol

HOW SWEET IT IS !!

Victory, and still bottom four:

5-13 - Kings
4-15 - Dallas
4-15 - Hawks
3-14 - Bulls

Now, if Toronto doesn't goof up and lose, we are safe. Still, 5 wins keeps everything close. We don't wish
to get too far away from the bottom. Somehow, these other teams need to start winning. Hawks can't
continue to turn their back on the victory circle, doing their sleepwalk 4th quarter.

Anything is possible. Not likely, but possible. Those threes might be there again tonight in the 4th.!
Is tonight's opponent better than NY ?

Ok, I'm fine with a loss. I didn't mean a 40-point loss. Keep it competitive

Just one of those games where nothing went right. Raps went on a huge run with Lowry and DeRozen on the bench, and in the third quarter when finally started missing some 3s they always got the offensive rebound.
