Game Preview:

The Nets come in having lost three in a row but are rested and primed to make a tough game out of a struggling opponent. This will be the Hawks first match up this season against former Georgia Tech hoopster Derek Favors who is coming off the bench and playing quite well for the Nets. It is soul searching time for the Hawks and perhaps a road trip can bring the team together and help cure whatever is ailing them. 

Keys to the Game:
