Wow, 5-0. There are 82 games in an NBA season. The Atlanta Hawks have won the first 5.
How did they do it? Win on the road. Check. Win at home. Check. Quality opponents...4 2007-08 playoff teams...Check.
What is impressive about the Hawks so far is their ability to play D. One opponent has scored over 90 points thus far - and we won that game by 10+.
Tonight, the Hawks sneaked out a win over the Thunder on the road but what was significant about this game was the fact that the Thunder are the Hawks of 3 years ago. They are young and learning how to finish a game in the NBA. It was a night full of past and future. Past: a young team that is talented but not quite ready. Future: an experienced team, willing to hang in and win a close game on the road in the NBA.
Past: Thunder. Future/NOW: Hawks.
