The Atlanta Hawks are 30-23 through 53 games with two games to go until the All-Star break.
At this point in the NBA season, it is any team's championship to win. In a little over a month, only the top seed in the East has not changed. The Atlanta Hawks bounced back from a week where they lost three-in-a-row by winning three-in-a-row and regained the top spot in the Southeast division. The Hawks needed a good week and did so by beating a good Dallas Mavericks team and getting a payback win over the Indiana Pacers.
