The Atlanta Hawks will face the New York Knicks in the first-round of the playoffs this weekend.

Voice of the Hawks, Steve Holman, will call a postseason game for the first time since 2017. He said the national media is going to be 'caught off guard' at the start of this series.

"If you listen to the national sports stores--number one, you're head will explode--and number two, you'd think the Knicks were playing the Washington Generals," Holman told Andy and Randy.

What does Holman think will surprise people, who haven't been paying attention to the Hawks this season, most?

"I think the biggest thing they're going to be surprised about is that it's not all Trae Young; that Clint Capela just happened to lead the NBA in rebounding they're finally discovering. John Collins, they're discovering...and they're also going to discover that De'Andre Hunter was a very big part of this team before he got hurt."

"If they decide to put (Hunter) into the starting lineup, that just makes the second unit that much stronger...I think that second unit is going to be as good as a lot of first units around the NBA."
