Atlanta Hawks Headlines: Game 4 Could Decide The Series
Atlanta Hawks Headlines is back. Tonight will see the Atlanta Hawks face the Washington Wizards in Game 4 of their first round playoff series.
The Atlanta Hawks pulled themselves halfway out of a 2-0 hole on Saturday afternoon. Their Game 3 victory over the Washington Wizards has given them new life in these playoffs. They’re still down 2-1, but that victory ensures that they still have a fighting chance in this series.
There’s no time to rest and celebrate the victory. The Hawks will be back at it tonight for Game 4. This is, again, a must-win game for the Hawks. Teams have a made a habit of coming back from 3-1 deficits in recent years, but Atlanta shouldn’t count on that history repeating itself.
Those types of collapses are reserved for Western Conference teams on the brink of history. Can the Hawks send this series back to our nation’s capital all tied up at 2-2?

Atlanta Hawks: Taurean Prince Emerges as Third Scoring Option
Collin Hugugley writes on Taurean Prince‘s emergence as a third scoring option for the Hawks in this series. Prince has been outstanding as a cutter off the ball and a finisher in transition. He gives Atlanta’s offense a boost of energy. He’s even started to make outside shots. Prince is ahead of schedule in terms of his development. I’d expect him to begin next season in the starting lineup.
