Preview: Can the Hawks win in Cleveland again?
The Atlanta Hawks went into Cleveland and stunned LeBron James and company earlier this season. With more than a month between contests, quite a bit has changed on both sides but, on Tuesday, the Hawks will have the opportunity to play spoiler against the Cavaliers once again.
This time around, though, Cleveland is playing (much) better basketball and the Hawks have a weaker roster position in comparison. The Cavs are expected to have Tristan Thompson back for this particular contest and, while Atlanta could conceivably have John Collins (listed as questionable) in the lineup, there is still a rather stark talent gap between the two teams.
