Let's do this Hawks. Dennis should be FEASTING on that defense.

Dennis has really worked on his shot in the offseason. Finally knocking down those open 3's.

Due to my work schedule I have yet to be able to watch a game until tonight.
Just now tuning in so it's going to be a nice change from refreshing box scores from my phone.

GO HAWKS!!

Good to have you h&m...

Hawks cooled off. They need another run to open the third.

Really a great effort to win this game on a back-to-back coming from a win in CLE.
Too much TO (22), Dennis 5-19 and +/- of -17, but still a win.

Special thanks to Delaney with a huge +25 (by far best in the game) in 17min

Balanced scoring, 8 in double figures. Glad to hold me off.

Great win against another eastern conference foe. Thabo and THJ had some timely personal scoring runs.

It's good having a capable bench to carry the load coming off an emotional game the previous night.

Atlanta's bench outscored Chicago's 54-18.

I'm surprised how much the Hawks dominated on the boards. Bulls actually lead the league in rebounding.

Good game non the less. Would have been better if my Bullies pulled off a win though ;-)

Loving it. Team identity changed over night after years of being labelled a soft/finesse team. He's always consistent on the boards even when he's not scoring much and the best part of the latter is he hasn't complained a lick yet. Maybe it's still the honeymoon period or perhaps Dwight has accepted his role in the new NBA, if it's there it's there but if not, don't force it.

I do love Dwight. The clogging of the lane on defense is great. Teams have to account for him when they drive. The game yesterday was a great example of them trying to shoot so high to not let him possibly block it.

That touch pass from Baze to Dennis was a thing of beauty.

Wade not getting the foul call was hilarious.

It was only the first game I could watch but Dwight looks very happy.
It's nice to see him smiling and vibing well with his new teammates.
After the game Dwight was being interviewed and Baze surprised him by messing around on camera behind him.

Couldn't have asked for more honestly. Totally changed our rebounding numbers overnight. He's actually making a surprising amount of free throws compared to what I was expecting. Seems to fit well on defense and appears happy on offense. I think we are actively trying to get him the ball. With some time to gel with the rest of the team I think Dwight might be a huge difference maker come playoff time.
