Hawks Get Win On Buzzer-Beater, Breathe Huge Sigh Of Relief

The Hawks escaped with a victory last night, and hopefully the buzzer-beater
from Joe Johnson will be just the tonic to cure what ails his shooting stroke.
Obviously, any win is a good win, but the Hawks have to be concerned about their play in the third quarter - in the last two games they've been outscored 57-21. That's astonishing. But, one good thing about the NBA is, you get several chances each week to try to solve your problems. What hasn't been working the last few nights may get turned on its head tomorrow night against Memphis, who knows? One other note from last night, Josh Childress went out with a strained groin. No word on his status yet, I'll see if I can find anything out about it at practice today. In other news, if you are in the market for a Hawks-related gift for your friends and family this holiday season, get to the arena early tomorrow night for the Memphis game and you can get Hawks C Lorenzen Wright's autograph. He'll be signing at Philips Experience from about 6:00 - 6:30 pm.
