Wade done for the year

I expected this sooner or later, the Miami Heat announced Dwayne Wade will sit out the remainder of the season to rest injuries. This move is a great move for two reasons:

1. The Heat will continue to tank and hopefully get the first pick, in their best case scenario. Even with Wade, they'd probably tank. They honestly, can't get any worse.

2. Wade has looked lifeless, undetermined and heartless a lot of this season, maybe he needs to rest, maybe he is really hurt.

After all of this and a summer to revamp their roster with a lot of cap room potentially, maybe we can see if Dwayne Wade is going to be the player we once thought he was, or if he's going to be the next Vince Carter.

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.

Tonight is the Hawks/Heat Re-Do, exciting stuff

Am I the only one who thinks the re-do of the Hawks/Heat game's last 51 seconds is pretty neat? I hope not.

The Hawks are really going all out for this, trying to get fans in early and pack the Phillips Arena for the replay. They're offering dollar drinks and other specials, including a free Hawks Dance Team swimsuit calendar (that's enough for me) to the people that get there for the early re-do.

Here is a message from Al Horford to Hawks fans, in case you don't know, Al Horford BETTER WIN ROOKIE OF THE YEAR!
