Well the pistons streak came to an end tonight versus the Hawks but they are still only 3 games behind the Heat for the 8th spot so they still good.

The sixers now have more wins than the Knicks after beating the Nets in Brooklyn tonight. I would still think the Knicks without Melo was better than the Sixers but I guess not lol

BTW: The only person I know on the Hawks is Kyle Korver.

I'm surprised you know Kyle Korver, but don't know Paul Millsaps, Jeff Teague, or Al Horford.

Well Korver played in large markets like Philadelphia and Chicago and was seen on national TV a lot.

You don't know Elton Brand and Thabo Sefolosha?

Ditto.

I fully admit I haven't paid much attention to several of the eastern teams that are having strong seasons so far.

I tend to pay attention to contenders, possible rebuilds and the trades that entails that could shift the balance of power and so forth.

Horford I knew about but he's been off the radar a bit since he'd missed most of 2 seasons out of the last 3 and his last really good year was 2011 where he made all-nba 3rd team

I paid attention to Hawks in the playoffs last year against Indiana. They looked pretty decent even without Horford. Their roster has been well built. Their young players like Shelvin Mack (Wizards gave up on him too soon), Mike Scott, and Dennis Schroder(sp?) have improved. Horford is so underrated too. Ditto to Millsap

Horford was a big time player back in 2011, if he is healthy he's a top 20 player in the league.

A good comparison for Horford in terms of the ability and then injury set backs would be Derek Rose IMO.
