Great game. 5-1, I smell and Raptor type season for the Hawks. New look, all the players are clicking. I love this record, but we really need to get better at inside defense. When we can get that down, watch out. We have the scoring, and perimeter defense, but we lack inside</p>
yeah, that'll be a huge issue for us.Horford had a solid 4blks, hopefully he and Shelden will get better on their inside defense throughout the season.</p>

In college you either have it, or you need to learn it. As the season goes on, Horford and Shelden will both get more comfortable with each other, and understand that both of them together, can be a pretty good defensive duo inside.</p>
