Yes Jameer, he did do that...

Quick Recap for those who didn’t watch it….

Larry Drew opted to use the “Big” lineup of Collins/Horford/Smith/Johnson/Hinrich  in order to match-up against the Magic lineup of Howard/Bass/Turkoglu/Richardson/Nelson to start the game. Turned out to be a good choice by Coach Drew.

Early in the first quarter, the “big” lineup paid off as Dwight Howard got two early fouls courtesy of Jason Collins. Dwight Howard played less than 4 minutes and only took 1 shot attempt in the first quarter, thanks to Jason Collins drawing a loose ball foul and an offensive foul on Dwight. When Dwight went out, the Hawks (stupidly but predictably) settled for jumpshots in the early going even though there was no defensive prescence in the paint anymore. However, the Hawks did get their offense rolling late in the quarter making 7 of their last 8 field goals of the quarter. Marvin Williams led the attack (off the bench) in the 1st, scoring 8 points, including a three ball that ended the first quarter that gave the Hawks a 2 point lead.
