    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Hawks coach Mike Woodson was irate Wednesday that center Al Horford didn't at least share the NBA Rookie of the Year award with the Seattle SuperSonics' Kevin Durant.

    "It's a travesty and it's not right," Woodson said Wednesday night before Atlanta's Game 5 loss to Boston, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "He should have shared it, if not gotten it outright. And I don't want to hear about us not being on TV or anything like that. It doesn't matter. It's what this kid has done for this team.

    "We haven't had a power forward/center come in our league and do what he's done [average a double-double] in I don't know how many years. I mean, come on, man."

    Horford averaged 10.1 points and 9.7 rebounds, helping the Hawks back to the NBA playoffs for the first time in nine years.</div>
