The Atlanta Hawks had a good season this year. They had 53 wins and 29 losses during the regular season and finished in 3rd place in the Eastern Conference. Jamal Crawford won the Sixth Man of the Year Award, Josh Smith was named to the NBA All-Defensive Second Team, and Joe Johnson was named to the All-NBA Third Team.
They started the playoffs well, beating the Milwaukee Bucks in the first round, even though it went to Game 7. In the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals, the Orlando Magic dominated them. The Hawks didn't win a game that series and finished with a 2010 Playoff record of 4-7.
Though they did go out fighting. They may have lost Game 4 to the Magic 98-84. They finished the game with a rally. The score was 98-77, but then the Hawks went on a 7-0 run to end the game. It really didn't matter in the end, but it must have cheered up the fans in Atlanta a little bit.
Now the Magic will play the Celtics or the Cavs in the East and the Suns will play either the Lakers or the Jazz.
