Conclusion

The Hawks have the talent on their roster to contend with any team in the league and have many different ways to display the pieces. Paul Millsap was a member of all four of the mentioned trios, while Tim Hardaway Jr., Dennis Schroder, and Dwight Howard could all be found in two of the four. These players were parts of memorable groupings, but they were not the only successful lineups. Of the 31 different three-men lineups that played in at least 10 games during Jan. 2017, 22 of them came out with positive Net Ratings, including 12 with Ratings over 10.
