Beefed-up East mightn

Mike Woodson said it Monday: “Everyone’s loading up in the East.” On paper, that’s true. Each of the Eastern Conference teams that finished ahead of the Hawks have added a bigger name than Jamal Crawford. But games, as we know, aren’t played on you-know-what.

And there’s a chance the Hawks, assuming Marvin Williams returns to their roster or a reasonable facsimile is found in a sign-and-trade, have closed the gap even more. Think of it this way: Link

i dont think the hawks have a chance at a top 3 seed now. but on the bright side, the only team i can see beating them out for the 4 seed is washington. maybe miami fi they get odom or boozer.

I'd really like to know who decided it was a good idea to put "mightn't" in a headline?

Of course they're real words. That doesn't mean they belong in a headline where the purpose is to be clear and concise.

Hawks just have to work harder... J smoove needs to expand his game and j.j needs to be more consistent. Other then that, this scrappy time will be fun to watch...they have already proven they can play and contend with the best...no worries there.

Jamal crawford = Ridiculously overrated

The exact opposite of what atlanta needs. Good luck with this head case.
