For quite a long time, the Memphis Grizzlies and the Atlanta Hawks were two similar teams. No matter what, they would find a way to make the playoffs. They were never going to win a title — sans the year the Hawks were the first seed out East — but they were going to scare the mess out of their opponents.
Now, the Atlanta Hawks and the Memphis Grizzlies have undergone somewhat of a facelift. One team may be towards the league’s basement, while the other will be fighting the good fight to stay alive in the postseason.
