We'll call it the Reazun showcase.




...the Atlanta Hawks play the Chicago Bulls for the second time in less than a week. Both teams would be in the playoffs if the season ended today, with the Hawks sitting in fourth place and the Bulls in eighth...[T]hough, neither team’s respective place in the standings looks particularly safe.

Atlanta is hoping to get Mike Muscala back soon, but the injured big man won’t be able to play tonight.

Chicago easily has the best player in this game in Jimmy Butler, and home-court advantage tips in their favor as well. On the other hand, Atlanta is clearly the better team from a season-long perspective, and this is the type of game that a mid-tier playoff team should win. Peachtree Hoops

If Wade and Butler are playing, I suppose the Hawks will be ready to go.

Hawks are a slight favorite at 1.5 points.
The Hawks have won the last six meetings.

GO HAWKS!

It's not halftime yet but Chicago leads 36-29.

WE JUST GOT AWAY WITH A ROBBERY!!

Jimmy Butler and Wade were hitting everything. The officiating sucked, but we kept things close all game despite not being able to take a lead.

Down 10 with 2:47 left, they go on a 19-4 run in my favorite 3 minute stretch of this season. Wow!

Well excuse me, then.

Amazing ending to say the least.

That Bulls team is definitely showing some frustration after an epic collapse last night. Hoiberg was already on the hot seat, but this might be the loss management points to when they hand him his walking papers.

Speculation on his job security is running rampant after last night:





I still think Hoiberg will make a good NBA coach someday. He just isn't ready yet. Call it the Terry Stotts dilemma.
