This is the first game of the 11 game road trip. We haven't played that well on the road and that's what we're faced with now. This will be the mark or break part of the season. If we can win some road games and finish with a respectable record we can make a playoff push. If we struggle on this road trip then we can kiss the playoffs good bye. It will also be helpful if Gordon, Kaman, or Smith will become available for the road games.
It won't be easy to come in and beat the Hawks at home. We will need a great effort from everyone and we'll need some unusual players to step up. Also the Hawks have an advantage with Joe Johnson. He is a big SG and I feel that we will have trouble guarding him. On the other hand we do have Blake Griffin and I'm sure the Hawks will use multiple guys to guard him. Put simply we need to play a great game in order to win it.
