Orlando Magic @ Atlanta Hawks

[Trueblue23]

This should be a very good game.. Hawks with the nice jerseys tonight.

Well the pregame started out with Howard trying to tea bag Josh Smith on National TV

Smith with the nasty dunk

Atlanta is tough this year, but they still won't be a legit contender... I would love for Joe Johnson to come play in Cleveland though :)

As for this game, it's been a pretty good one. Atl up 35-34...

[hoops23]

Atlanta is pulling away 51-39 with 9 seconds left...

Still say Orlando won't be a major threat, as they were last year.

[wes_mantooth]

Yeah, I agree about Orlando. Hedo was so valuable to what they do.

[hoops23]

Atlanta went absolutely ICE cold in that 3rd quarter.. Now trail by 4 points.

This is what happens when you rely on the perimeter game to carry you.

[JakeGiant]

yeah, Atlanta and Orlando are screwed. Just like Orlando last year when it was said they were too much a 3-point shooting team, and that Superman couldn't take over games in the 4th Quarter.

[burt07]

Atlanta with a silky 25 points in the 2nd half.

[hoops23]

Atlanta started missing wide open shots and it doomed them. They don't have a true post presence to throw it to 15-25 times a game...

[Nate]

Atlanta is going to be tough all year.
