It's easy to discount the hawks and we can't say "don't discount them because the hawks played well against them" since that strengthens my argument, not yours:
Losing 14 of 15 from feb 4th to mar 8th winning 5 and then with their playoff lives hanging by a thread losing 7 of 8 to give the woeful Knicks hope.
Then they finished out the year making the playoffs by a spider web strand by beating:
Celtics (tanking)
Brooklyn (tanking)
Miami(tanking)
Bobcats (they lost this game)
Bucks (tanking)
Outside of two quality wins against the pacers (which says something) and Cavs (bad team) the Hawks have played quite poorly indeed.
And then they looked like a 4 seed against the pacers.
