1) The Hawks' bigs can stretch the floor
Al Horford went 2-3 from deep, Mike Muscala nailed his only three-point attempt and both Paul Millsap and Mike Scott contributed three-pointers. You'd be hard-pressed to find a team that has as many big men who double as perimeter shooters.
2) The Hawks are making a deliberate attempt to get to the free throw line this season
Atlanta followed up a 30 free throw attempt performance Wednesday by getting to the line 36 times Friday. The Hawks were 23rd in free throw attempts last season, and they seem to be putting more of an emphasis on attacking the rim this year.
