    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Shareef Abdur-Rahim had 32 points, 14 rebounds and a key steal late in the game to help Atlanta rally past the Minnesota Timberwolves 97-89 Wednesday night.

    "I've been saying all year we're going to come out after a win and play hard the next night," Stephen Jackson said. "I ain't saying that now. I just hope we do."

    Jason Terry added 20 points, Jackson scored 17 and rookie Boris Diaw had the best game of his brief career. He tied season highs with 10 rebounds and eight assists, and was only one point off his best effort with seven</div>

    Recap

    If only the Hawks play as well against the weaker teams as they do with the elite teams they could be a playoff contender.

    How the heck did this happen? More of this could put more fans in the seats.

    I think the Wolves slept on them, that is it...The Hawks come to play against elite teams, and for once they actually had some fans in the building, I think they were all Timberwolves' fans though.

    They are one of the best teams in the league and lost to one of the worst.
    I think the wolves had a off night.KG didn't connect on the floor.

    We came unprepared and thought that we had it in the bag automatically. But it goes to show you never underestimate anybody, even if it is the Hawks.

    This was so unexpected, I really felt bad losing to such a crappy team. Then again teams like them and Memphis always act unexpectedly and seem to defeat
    teams so abruptly so not all that surprising. Still tough, they'll die even more soon enough.

    I'm still in shock that the wolves lost, but that loss also put them on there toes, and hopefully nothing like this will happen to them again.
