Struggling Magic aim to get well against Hawks
Atlanta is off to its worst 23-game start since the 2004-05 season when it finished with a 13-69 record.
The Magic and Hawks split their four-game series last season with each game being decided by double digits.
The Hawks (5-18) recently split a home-and-home set with the Brooklyn Nets.
On Saturday, Atlanta took the lead for good late in the first quarter of a 114-102 win at Brooklyn. On Monday, the Hawks gave up the first 17 points of the second half and trailed by as many as 29 in a 110-90 loss to the Nets.
It was Atlanta's 11th double-digit loss but only second by at least 20 points, which was even more disappointing considering what the up-tempo first half looked like.

Our yo yo season continues.
Sometimes we can and sometimes we can't.
Being a tank team sure is hard on all of us.

Love Steve Holman. Catch more games on the radio than tv. Usually listening on the way home late from work and catch the 3rd/4th on tv and generally get more amped up from his radio call.

Let's get the split here, but let's win the game at home this time since I go to these games and want to taste some Ws once in a while.
Oh but let's be competitive in the loss.

Lame execution with a shot clock violation... Hawks season.

I'm a little ashamed to say it, but I found myself actively rooting for a loss in this one. This would've been the type of win that does nothing for you.
Elfrid Payton made one of the STUPIDEST fouls I've ever seen up 1 with 27 seconds left in regulation (12 seconds on the shot clock), fouling Schroder on the perimeter, about 60 feet from the basket. Up 3 I thought the Magic had handed us the W, then DJ Augustine hit an incredibly clutch 3.
The Mavs, Kings, and Bulls all blew double digit leads to lose tonight, so taking an L here was important. Why do sucky teams have to suck so much?

Perfect game for us..great effort and hustle and we played our hearts out and got an L. Kudos to Bembry, he can lead the league in steal one day. Dennis was beasting too.
