Squawkers Hawksquawk Posted March 3, 2010 Squawkers Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Smoove is having fun. So is that guy back there in the sweater. You should, too. (Curtis Compton, ccompton@ajc.com) I admit it: I’ve been in micro-mode too much lately. All this talk about isos, switching D and Woody’s pleas and I’ve neglected the big picture story sitting right there in the standings. So let’s forget examining the Hawks’ warts with a microscope for a minute and acknowledge that it’s March and they are in a good, old-fashioned race for the division title. The Hawks are two games back of Orlando in the Southeast with 23 games to play. Boston is still hanging around at No. 3 in the East. Toronto has lost four straight and is no longer a concern to rise up. Cleveland is out of reach even with Shaq’s thumb surgery. The Hawks have a real chance to earn homecourt in the playoffs for two rounds. You might get an argument if you say they have a shot at the East finals but at least you wouldn’t be immediately shouted down with ridicule. This is all supposed to be fun View the full article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
