2011 Predictions
The Atlanta Hawks are a very underestimated team, that has come up from being considered the worst team in the league just seven years ago, to being in the playoffs the past three years in a row. As the same as every other team in the league however, just making it to the playoffs isnt enough, you have to win for it to mean something. The Hawks seem to have the desire and the heart to make it all the way each year, and they consistantly do well beating teams that are at their same skill level. There biggest problem seems to be powerhouse teams like L.A. and Boston. In their most recent playoff experiance they were swept in the second round 4-0 by the previous powerhouse Cleveland. The Hawks will no doubt do well next season, but with even more super teams this year than last year, such as the Heat, a championship doesnt look too likely.
