Hawks get blown out against Heat 116-93

By: Lucas Kochevar 

     The Hawks played in Miami against the Heat and they hoped to keep winning. They faced the Heat as they were on a 9-game win streak. The Hawks came out and they competed at first but then they laid down and the Heat walked all over them and they didn't have a chance. The Hawks felll down by too much and they just couldn't stay in the game. The Hawks took the loss 116-93. Goran Dragic scored a game-high 27 points. Kent Bazemore led the Hawks with 14 points. No one had a good game on the Hawks. They hope to get a win as Dwight Howard returns to Houston for the first time since his departure. The Hawks hope to get back on track. They have not been playing the stellar defense like they did earlier in the season. If Thabo Sefolosha can return this defense will be helped in a major way.
