Hawks face Grizzlies looking to continue success vs. West

Playing at Philips Arena hasn't been a home court advantage for the Atlanta Hawks against fellow Eastern Conference teams. Atlanta's 4-13 intraconference home record is not much better than the dismal 5-21 mark overall on the road.

It is a different story, though, when a Western Conference team visits Atlanta.

The Hawks (16-37) have won six straight at home against the supposedly stronger West and are 7-3 going into Tuesday night's game against the Memphis Grizzlies (18-34).

The Hawks got just their third road victory against the East on Sunday, snapping an eight-game conference losing streak with a 99-96 victory over the New York Knicks.

Two teams in the NBA basement facing off on a Tuesday Night. I wouldn't exactly expect a packed house.

Ersan, Dedmon, Marco I know we're all expecting. But if this is the last Hawks game for Baze it'll be really weird.

:crazy: Will we?

Is this the final game here for some of our current Hawks?

What if we make no deal? We can't just trade to be doing. We must do it to accomplish something.

Gramps did you just call me crazy? :lol: Last week your granddaughter called me gullible... :roll:

I do see your point in them all returning if they try to fleece us as usual...I swear when it’s a buyers market we are sellers and when it’s a sellers market we are buyers. Is it bad luck or do the basketball Gods just hate us?

GO HAWKS!!!!! :nod:

Grizzlies are just awful. At least the Magic crushed the Cavs. Now we need to lost to Orlando and blow out the Cavs ourselves.

Big wins like this can be great for the team even if some of our prefer tank mode. Tyler Dorsey played 20+ minutes so I hope that becomes more of a trend so we can see what type of numbers he can produce. Solid night for him.

Return to Atlanta Hawks
