The Atlanta Hawks have had their share of issues as of late. The one that keeps coming up is the Hawks not being able to close out games. The Hawks 118-117 loss to the Dallas Mavericks really put on display where their issues lie.
The Hawks aren't alone when it comes to putting a consistent product out there. The quick turnaround and players dealing with COVID are issues that every team is dealing with. Kurt Helin, of NBC Sports, joined The Jon Chuckery Show to discuss who some early frontrunners may be.
"It's hard to get a read on any team," Helin said.
Everyone who follows the Hawks know they have been up and down all year. Based on how this season has gone, the Hawks are right on par with the rest of the league. It will only take this team getting healthy to solidify themselves as a true playoff contender.
In a pandemic season, it's all about getting to the dance and who knows what could happen once they get there.
