The first half of this game was very competitive while the second half was more of a series of runs that the two teams would go on.  The Wizards had Beal, Wall, and Porter all having big games.  Schroder had a game high 29 points but between Schroder, Hardaway Jr, and Millsap they combined shooting 24 for 55 from the field.  The team shot just 29% from three point range which was probably the difference in the game as they missed 22 three pointers. Other than rebounding Dwight Howard has had a really sad outing with the Hawks in the playoffs.  He has just made 15 baskets in the first five games of the series on 32 shots.  Percentage wise it’s not that bad except for the fact that he is averaging just 8 points per game (6 points less than his regular season average).  The Hawks would go on to barely lose this game 103-99.  They will need to win the final two games of the series in order to move on to the next round.
