We're playing well.

A rare win...

Wow. We actually got the W?

We play really well against the Bulls. Our defense, which is predicated on forcing turnovers, is really rough for them. I hope we play them in the playoffs.

BIG win on national TV.

Teague played well. Dennis was somewhere between brilliant and maddening.

So crazy that the difference between the 5th seed and 8th seed is a single game.

Bad thing about getting back into the 4th/5th seed...puts us in line to face CLE in the 2nd round.

Turnovers!

the last three games the Hawks were losing bad because of turnovers. This game they only gave up the ball 11 times!

Hawks need to go back to the basics, go back to the things that got them success in 2015, elite ball movement and elite defense.

That's what I've been worried about all season, avoiding Cleveland as long as possible.

The good news is that we're just two games back of third place.

However, with Toronto just two back of the Cavs, it's not even a given that Cleveland will be the top seed (I still think they will). There's just an element of randomness to it all.

Worry more towards the very end of the season when teams try to win out or tank to determine matchups and seeding, right now the only concern is righting the ship and creating any positive momentum.
