Hawks go for 5 of their last 6 vs. Orlando.

Jeff is supposed to be good to go.

Good turnaround in the 2nd quarter.

Man. This young Orlando ZMagic squad is pretty good. They are going to be a player in the EC moving forward. Maybe not 2016...but soon.

Horford is much more effective/productive/efficient when he works the mid-range and in the paint. He's got to bypass the 3-pt shot. Focus on his strengths and in owning the interior.

I like what Lamar Patterson can do. He's a nice role player moving forward.

Great win to get in a divisional road game. I agree Jamaal, Al has stopped taking that three since that loss to Miami, and its payed off for both his game and for the team. I hope he just abandons the shot entirely, like a certain other promising Hawks PF should've done.

Next three games are very winnable: all at home, against the Blazers, Pistons, and Knicks. Winning these last three in a row took us from 10th in the East to tied for 4th. Three more and we might move into 2nd.

Hopefully this game is a turning point for Korver. He hit six 3's, including the eventual game winning shot with 43 seconds left. He's struggled this year, but looked like vintage Korver tonight.

Korver just dominated Oladipo all game long, both offensively and defensively.

Korver was great. Hopefully we can win our next 3, or get 2 of 3.
