Hawks win two games in one night

Well, if you don't know by now, the Hawks wound up winning tonight's replay. The original score of the game was 117-111. They replayed at 114-111, and that was the final score, no team scored. Judging from the picture above it doesn't look like many people got there to see the replay, but in two years when the Hawks are one of the best teams in the East (yes, I said it) all the bandwagoners will fill Phillips Arena.

The Miami Heat are awful, when they protested the first game they had Shaq and they weren't officially done, but now, they get the replay and can't even score. What a waste of time!

The two teams took 15 minutes to gather themselves and then got back on the court for a full four quarters in ATL. The teams played a tight game, but the Hawks beat them twice in one night, this time 97-94. Joe Johnson leads the Hawks with 39 points, 8 assists and 6 rebounds. The Hawks get two wins in one night, and if Dallas beats New Jersey tonight, the Hawks will have sole possession of the eighth seed.

The Miami Heat are now 11-50 on the season.

Yeah, the East is awful, but it'd be nice to see the Hawks get their franchise finally turned around. I'd rather see Atlanta in the playoffs than the awful and depressing New Jersey Nets.
