But a threat to the Heat, they are not.
Yes, the Hawks did beat the Heat on the boards and in the first play-in game of last season but don’t expect history to repeat itself. These Hawks are worse. They are injured and seem to be on a collision course for major offseason changes. If the Hawks had the option to rage quit this season, they might.
Miami is 2-1 against Atlanta this season and its only loss came by one point thanks to a miraculous 3-pointer by Murray in the final two seconds. If these teams meet in the play-in game, the Heat should be confident in their chances of getting the win at Kaseya Center and advancing.
