The Atlanta Hawks (10-2) became the first team in the Eastern Conference to get 10 wins this season as they took down the Miami Heat (7-4) Wednesday night at home. The Hawks were led by who else but Joe Johnson. Johnson shot the ball great from the outside, hitting 5-11 threes and finishing with 30 points, 3 assists, and 2 rebounds. Johnson got a lot of help from Josh Smith, who filled up the stat sheet in this one. Smith scored 16 points, grabbed 14 rebounds, and dished out 7 assists. Smith was also a beast on defense, blocking 2 shots and getting 2 steals. The Hawks did a great job containing the very talented Dwayne Wade. Wade only hit 33% of his shots and was held to 15 points. The Hawks are the surprise of the East so far this season and are undefeated at home. Nobody expected them to be on top of the Eastern Conference with the Celtics, Magic, and Cavaliers expected to be better. If they can rebound and play good defense against high quality opponents like Wade, they will stay near the top all season.
