In the Mike Woodson era, the Atlanta Hawks have lost 11 playoff games. The average margin of defeat in those losses was over twenty-two points a game. Twenty-two! That is borderline unsportsmanlike by the other team. And since I am one who believed a healthy Hawks team could have stolen at least a game from the Cavs, I will let Woody off the hook for those four losses. Oh wait, that pushes the margin to over twenty-five points a contest. You may not have known this, but that Cavs series was an example of Mike Woodson's coaching skills keeping it close.
Piling on? Over simplifying? A little mean to point out in September? Yes, yes, and probably.
Excusable for a coach? No.
