Hawks win over Pacers to get 1 win of the year

The Hawks (1-1) played the Pacers (1-2) on a rematch of the the playoff series that went to game 7 on Saturday. The Hawks came out victorious with a 102 to 92 win that was sweet revenge for knocking the Hawks out of the playoffs. Roy Hibbert and Luis Scola came out with a double double and Chris Copeland leading the team in scoring with 21. Al Horford with 20 points and Jeff Teague with 25 and 6 assist lead the Hawks. The Hawks really controlled the whole game which they lead by 9 points by the end of the 1 quarter and keep the lead almost the whole time. Al Horford returned to play after having a injury that sat him out for half the season last season, but he was limited in minutes with Pero Antic almost splitting the time. The Pacers were missing all star player Paul George, because of a leg injury that occurred during his time with Team USA and will miss him for the whole year.

This is a great win for Hawks and also great revenge for almost upsetting the pacers in the playoffs last year, but came up just short. I wish that Paul George wasn't hurt so he could play, and best wishes to him recovering.
