Clearly it was in the game plan to sloooow this game down. I mean, there have been countless times in this half where whomever has the ball barely brings it past half court before the 8 second backcourt violation.
Atlanta is showing though, this game is far from over...all of that work to get a 20pt lead, and the Hawks may have it under 10 by halftime. I've unfortunately lost almost all faith in Jae Crowder on offense until he shows me otherwise...combination of the ankle plus just being in a terrible shooting slump, the dude can't hit the ocean right now.
