Gave up 31 to the Magic in the first quarter. Defense is crap.

Glad we tightened up on defense after that first.

24-3 run. In the words of Nique, we just put our foot on Orlando's neck. Feels good to get a W again.

Held them well below 100 points, win by double digits, coming out healthy. I'm fine with this outcome despite the shaky start

Who. Muscala, brand, antic. Huge lineup.

The Magic really should be running their entire offense through Vucivic

Pero with another very nice outing. I was real impressed with his D on Vucevic in the 4th. He was battling hard for boards and that was a nice 3 ptr plus charge combo at then end. He also had the tip out which lead to the Schroder 3 that put us up 4.

Nice win. Midway through the fourth quarter, it was like Atlanta realized: "We're the f***ing Hawks, we should be mauling these guys!"
I'm also glad to see Pero finally hitting some shots.

Not a good game by the Hawks, but at least they got the win.

Good to see Thabo back.

Horford is still in a mini slump. In the last 10 games, he is only shooting .420FG%, his season average is 530FG%.

It was a very poorly officiated game. A lot of Hawks hit the floor going to the basket and the refs didn't call anything. the Magic had 20 free throw attempts, the Hawks only had 10 free throw attempts.

The defense really save the game for the Hawks in this one.

With Thabo back, hopfully the chemistry can build back up, ready in time for the playoffs.

Return to Atlanta Hawks
