Power Rankings Roundup: Home stand blues

The Magic’s inconsistency is maddening. It is something we will continue to address in the coming weeks.

The Hawks though. There is a team that is really interesting.

The league is just coming around to the Southeast Division leaders. Atlanta is playing extremely well. The team beat the L.A. Clippers on the road Monday night. The Hawks continue to impress.

They are led by a former Spurs man in Mike Budenholzer and he has built a team that works hard together. They are rightly called Spurs-East by many. They do not have any true stars (they are guaranteed to get at least one of their players into the All-Star Game if not two) and they have Playoff experience from the past decade nearly.

Be aware of the Hawks. Be very aware.

At least Atlanta knows who we are.
