What
You Really Need To Know
The Hawks are tough to beat when they are sharing the ball and playing at a fast
pace. In the team's most complete offensive performance of the season, Atlanta
scored a season-high 117 points and never trailed as they beat the pesky
Bobcats. Joe Johnson led the way with 34, but Marvin and the two Joshes each
dominated at stretches to keep the Charlotte defense guessing.
Fantasy MVP: Joe Johnson
Joe tossed in 34 (24 in the first half) for a season-high, and added 10 assists
and 5 rebounds to go with it. All in all the best game of the season for the
Hawks All-Star.
Momentum Changer
The Hawks were lights out shooting the ball in the first quarter, making 14-20
shots (70%!) on their way to 37-22 lead. The 37 points represented a team
season-high for a quarter, most courtesy of an attacking style that saw the team
get several layups and easy buckets. Though Charlotte would rally throughout the
game to try to keep it close, they could never recover after the blitz of the
opening stanza.
What Went Right
“
Joe Johnson is tough to deal with. There are a handful of guys in the league
that are tough to deal with, and Joe is definitely one of them. He can make jump
shots, and if you foul him, he can make his free throws. He can basically do
everything.”Michael W.
