Not that I'd usually gripe about the best beat man in Atlanta, but this sort of thing drives me bonkers:

Nothing could make up for the Hawks’ miserable shooting night, they made 37 percent (29-for-78) of their shots from the floor, including a 7-for-17 showing from beyond the 3-point line.

See, Sekou, when you consider that you get an extra point for shooting outside the three-point arc, it changes the "what's a good shooting percentage?" formula a bit. 7-for-17 is actually pretty gosh-darned good, the equivalent of shooting better than 61 percent from inside the arc. The story here isn't that the Hawks shot poorly, period; it's that on the offensive end, at least, some timely three-point shooting bailed out a wretched two-point shooting night. For one of the NBA's absolute worst three-point shooting teams in 2007, that's a pretty big deal.
