The Atlanta Hawks (14-19) will take on the Miami Heat (16-17) for the first time this season Sunday evening. Fresh off of a disappointing loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder Friday night, the Hawks will look to get that bad taste out of their mouths in South Beach.
Miami seems to be trending in the right direction, winning seven of their last ten (five straight) with wins over the Jazz, Lakers and Raptors during that span. The Heat are 9-7 at home this season, while the Hawks are 6-10 on the road.
Atlanta is now losers of seven of their last ten games after a dud of a performance in Oklahoma City on Friday.
