12/12/08 Preview: HAWKS v. Miami Heat

After doing the Texas Tango, the Hawks are on their way to travel to South Beach to take on the Miami Dwyane Wade's. I know there are other people on the team, but let's all be honest none of them really matter in the grand scheme of things. Sure it could be cool watching the number two pick, Beasley, play. But if it is anything like what has been happening recently, there wont be much time for that.

NEWS

The Hawks have lost 3 in a row and have a chance to go on their second four game losing streak this season. Remind me again how many playoff caliber teams have two 4 games losing streaks in the course of the first two months of the season. I'll give you a hint...none.

I ain't Ehlo, this kid will not play. A big, stinkin' ZERO
