The Atlanta Hawks have beaten Dwayne Wade and the Miami Heat in the first round of the NBA playoffs in 7 games. This is the first time the Hawks have moved on to the second round since 1999. The Hawks are both happy and grateful. They mostly kept the team together, only adding a few players and withstood the years of struggle to finally have something to be proud about. Head Coach Mike Woodson told management when he first got the job in Atlanta that he he need 4 years to truly turn this team around on the right track, and he was correct. The celebration must come to a sudden hault because they are going to be facing "The Beast" Lebron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers. People are already writing them off for a sweep in a 4 games, so the Hawks have much to prove and should play with a chip on their shoulder, as they did last year in the first round against the Boston Celtics.
