One of a Kind: ATL Hawks

By: Aryan Javan

The Atlanta Hawks are off to their best 60-game start in franchise history. The Hawks are in the midst of a five-game-winning streak. They are the first team in the NBA, this season, to clinch a playoff berth, after their comeback win over the Houston Rockets Tuesday.

The Hawks are 17-4 against the "superior" Western Conference, the best record by anyone against the West. Coach Budenholzer has the team playing at an elite level every night. The "no-superstar" status is the best thing that ever happened to the Hawks. They do not have any players with big egos and play for one another night-in-night-out.


Their next opponent is the red-hot Cleveland Cavaliers who will roll into Atlanta Friday. The Hawks are 2-1 against the Cavaliers this season.
