Atlanta Hawks

The San Antonio Spurs and the Houston Rockets are facing off in the second round of the Western Conference playoffs.

The landscape is much changed. "Atlanta was longer...the desperately gay place she had loved. It was a hideous place like a plague-stricken city so quiet, so dreadfully quiet after the din of the siege." (341) The sounds of a ravaged South, too, rang familiarly in the ears of ghetto-dwellers

and three draft picks—a king's ransom considering Il Mago's decline in production over the years. Ujiri followed up that heist almost one year later with an under-the-radar transaction, sending seldom-used veteran forward John Salmons to the Atlanta Hawks for Lou Williams and Lucas Nogueira. It was a no-lose situation bringing over Williams, who had a built a reputation over the years for being one of the
