Atlanta Hawks Schedule 2019 Hawks Schedule

Atlanta is in the midst of a true rebuild, and so are a few of their division rivals. Orlando and Charlotte are likely the closest in talent, but still Atlanta comes in as the weakest team in the division, and possibly the conference. There is a real shot that Atlanta takes home the worst record in the East this season, and quite possibly the NBA, which in this day and age tanking is a way to rebuild in the NBA. They open against the Knicks, who are another rebuilding Eastern team, but likely won’t be able to compete. One of the bigger narrative games is October 24th against Dallas, and the reason is Luka Doncic. Atlanta passed on him in the draft, and Doncic has a little swagger to his name which could create some fun. Atlanta did draft Trae Young, which will create a battle with some of the younger point guards in the game. The Hawks will struggle against the better Eastern opponents, like Boston, Toronto, Washington, and Philadelphia. The West will likely roll right through the Hawks, given they are the superior conference. The Hawks have 12 back-to-backs scheduled, which is actually lower than the rest of the league. Atlanta won’t be pushing for wins, but instead will be developing their young talent like John Collins, Young, and Taurean Prince. They will be able to test that talent against other young teams like Brooklyn, Orlando, and Chicago. They might be able to win a few of those, but overall this is a team that will struggle. Atlanta has a few TV scheduled games against Golden State, Orlando, Los Angeles Clippers, New Orleans, and Philadelphia. In the market they are in, and given the status of the team, it is no surprise that they have the lesser TV schedule of the league.
