Atlanta has said they won’t be trading Paul Milsap but keeping him does not all of a sudden make them a contender.
New York would love to have conversations like that instead of wondering where their players are.
The Knicks are in Toronto the afternoon before to play the Raptors. This is some odd scheduling.
Atlanta Hawks
Atlanta had won seven in a row before coming back to earth in a close home loss to the Celtics. The streak started with an OT win over the Knicks.

Atlanta has recently been among the most efficient offensive teams in the league but that has evaporated quickly thanks to changes in their personnel.
I was not a Jeff Teague guy but I think he was a better fit for the Hawks than Dennis Schroeder. It is not a talent thing it is a predictability thing. Schroeder isn’t able to get his and put the team in the right spots when I watch.

Dwight Howard might be converting 63% of his shots but they really don’t look to feature him on offense. A lot of his stuff comes from the offensive glass and defensive breakdowns.
Milsap is a nice player but he is not a gamebreaker. The teams were looking to add him know that and they want him as a third option not the lead dog he is for the Hawks.
Atlanta is in that dangerous middle of not being bad and not being all that good.
New York Knicks
I suppose it is good news that Derrick Rose is back with the Knicks. They are still not a great team but it is nice to know that if you pay someone enough money they will eventually show up for work.
It is not that long ago that New York was a pleasant surprise. They won their last game but have lost eight of ten and are not much of a factor in the East right now.
Melo keeps on trucking though, averaging a team best 22ppg.
Kristaps Porzingis is having a great second season but he missed the win against Chicago and is not expected to play against Toronto on Sunday. Be sure about his status before you make any wagers.
Against his former team Joakim Noah remembered that it is OK to score the ball. It was the first time in 2017 that he was in double digits in points with 12, 15 rebounds too.

New York can surprise teams because they have enough talent. They are 1-1 against the Hawks this season, the win coming at home.
I am not expecting Rose to go AWOL again but it is symbolic of the never know what is going to happen theme with this group.

This is a tough call because there is probably not a ton separating these two teams. I think the way to go is with the visiting Hawks.
