Jordan Hill Shines In Lakers Victory Against Hawks

The Atlanta Hawks visited the Staples Center to take on Kobe Bryant and the Lakers tonight. Little did the crowd know it was going to be Jordan Hill's night. The 6'10" center filled in for an injured Pau Gasol with a permanent starting job in mind. Hill dominated the Hawks bigs on both ends of the floor scoring 16 points and grabbing 17 boards. 7 of those boards coming on the offensive end.

The Hawks found themselves in a deep hole early. Down by as many as 20 they fought their way back in the game led by Luis Williams and his 21 points. Demarre Carroll did a good job keeping the ball out of Kobe's hands limiting him to 10 points on the night. The Hawks demise came from poor rebounding and horrendous free throw shooting. The Lakers out rebounded the Hawks 39 to 23 with 18 coming on the offensive end which led to 21 second chance points. Shooting 64% didn't help matters as the Hawks went on to lose by 5. Up next the Hawks look to bounce back against the Sacramento Kings.
