LOS ANGELES LAKERS (1962)
BOSTON CELTICS (1962)
BOSTON CELTICS (1975)
PHILADELPHIA 76ERS (1983)
LOS ANGELES LAKERS (1998)
DETROIT PISTONS (2006)

Unbelievable. And yet even that season ended in embarrassment for Hawks fans. :lol: :( :noway: :banghead:

We only had 4 because no one could decide on which one or two deserved it more. That was about the most balanced 5 man lineup ever. I know the Horford zealots will come after me but it probably should have been just Sap and Korver.

An undefeated month - it was glorious while it lasted.

Better times, and the best part was that that entire season was just so unexpected. The real star of our team was the one who was coaching them in that All Star game, though. Can't help but wonder how much different things would be if the Ferry fiasco didn't happen, and if Bud never had a chance to take over as the team President.

I think Ferry could have kept us more competitive than we were without him, but I have no reason to believe he would have ever made us true contenders. And I definitely like Schlenk more in a rebuild situation based on draft results.
