 ATLANTA (AP) - The Atlanta Hawks, who have missed the playoffs seven straight years, believe they could join the postseason fun in the weak Eastern Conference this year — if only they could win more at home.
The Hawks earned a rare impressive home win Friday night as Joe Johnson scored 31 points and Atlanta survived a late scare to beat Tracy McGrady and the Houston Rockets 105-99.
The Hawks, tied for the second-most road wins in the conference with 12, ended a four-game home losing streak.
