Hawks now 1-4 in their last 5. And each of their 3 last wins were by 1 or 2 points vs. bad teams. Wonder if this changes their thinking on trades, especially if they keep losing until late Feb.
Yeah, and no incentive to tank... though Brooklyn has now won three straight. Maybe the Hawks will feel they might have to take matters into their own hands by February
I would say yes. A small one. But we don't know how long they will hold this course. Their losing ways could start again in spades the next time they play.
