I still think it's way too early. Maybe after 30 games or so we'll get a better picture.
Not sure what to make of them. I thought they were like Pho, a product of their schedule, but they netted a couple good wins against Portland and Denver. What's with these guys? They look like a good team but not good enough to take on the Elite like LA and Orlando, but some of their road wins really have me scratching my head. Are these guys really that good?

i don't think so, they have a thin front court and this will be exposed in the playoffs. I love horford and smoove and zaza of the bench, BUT, look at what orlando did to them.. i mean... that's not just luck or a bad day.
And they don't have a guy to take over like bron/wade/kobe/melo. Joe johnson is good but he is not that good , especially from a mental point of view,which leads me to my last argument, these guys lack mental toughness and this counts alot.
I guess they have a thin front court, but Portland should have exposed that and they beat Portland twice.
balla does have a point. They don't have a true go-to-guy (call it a superstar if you like) whom they can rely in clutch situations. I too just don't see Joe Johnson as that guy.
they play a very short rotation, looks almost PO like. I wouldn't be surprised if they run out of gas in the 2nd half of the season.
and yes, with 1 and 1/2 big man you don't win much comes PO time.
The Hawks are like Duncan=phony as a pound of Boar's Head baloney.
I am sure Marvin Williams is part of their frontline. Small ball 4, I would say. They could go with a lineup of Bibby, Crawford, Johnson, Williams and Zaza and not lose anything. They are a versatile team and vets, prospects and young stars who can chip in when needed but the team could be fully utilised if the coach is better than Mike Woodson.
