In Atlanta, the Hawks handled the Pistons 98-85. The Pistons couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Hawks. The Hawks ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Pistons' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Hawks locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
