T.J. Ford's teammates said the Toronto Raptors guard was moving before he was taken off the court on a stretcher following a scary fall late in Tuesday night's 100-88 victory over the Atlanta Hawks. Ford, who missed the 2004-05 season with Milwaukee following neck surgery, stole the ball and was headed toward a breakaway basket when Atlanta rookie Al Horford hit his face with his hand. Ford landed hard on his back, his head bouncing off the floor. ``After a while I could see him moving and that was a relief,'' Toronto's Chris Bosh said, adding there was immediate concern about Ford because everyone knew his injury history. ``It turns my stomach because of who it is,'' Bosh said. ``Like I say, we know about his situation and everything. ``He was conscious. He wasn't trying to move too much. I'm sure he was feeling pain in his arms and legs. I just hope he's OK.'' Raptors spokesman Jim LaBumbard confirmed Ford ``had feeling in his upper and lower extremities when he was taken off the floor.'' Ford was taken to Piedmont Hospital in Atlanta. Raptors director of basketball operations Marc Eversley and assistant trainer Rory Mullin were with him at the hospital. LaBumbard said it was expected Ford would remain at the hospital through the night. Toronto coach Sam Mitchell reacted with immediate anger to the hard foul and had a brief exchange of words with Atlanta coach Mike Woodson. ``We're just concerned about T.J.,'' Mitchell said. ``There's not much more to say. We've just got to wait and see.'' Horford insisted he did not try to injure Ford, who had 26 points. ``Definitely not. I'm not a dirty player,'' Horford said. Horford said he was fooled by Ford's move as he went up for the layup with 1:32 left. ``When it happened with a minute and a half left, we were still down by eight (92-84),'' Horford said. ``He got the steal. I just tried to go and block the shot. When he went up, I went up too. He tried to use the rim and I thought he was going to stay on (one) side so I went up and tried to hit the ball and I hit his head. ``He just made a good move and fooled me.'' Horford said he was alarmed by Ford's hard fall. ``When I saw his head hit twice, that's when I thought it was serious,'' said Horford, who was ejected with the flagrant foul. Bosh said it didn't look like a dirty play by Horford. ``Al kind of mistimed it and hit him in his head,'' Bosh said. ``I don't think he meant to do it on purpose. He was making a basketball play. He just got him right on his head.'' Woodson spoke with Mitchell after the game. ``I just went down there to let them know our prayers are with him,'' Woodson said of Ford. Players on both benches and fans were quiet as medical personnel attended to Ford. ``I'm a good friend of T.J.'s,'' Atlanta's Josh Smith said. ``Knowing about the injury he had in Milwaukee, it kind of scared me. I started praying for him.'' Toronto led 69-68 entering the final quarter but stretched the lead to 82-71 before Marvin Williams, who had 23 points, finally ended Atlanta's field goal drought with 7:30 left. Joe Johnson also had 23 points for Atlanta. The Hawks (10-11) were denied in their attempt to move over .500 after 20 or more games for the first time since 1998-99, their last playoff season. Ford was 8-of-11 from the field and had 19 points as Toronto led 54-43 at halftime. The Hawks cut into the lead with a strong third quarter but couldn't continue the strong play early in the fourth. A three-pointer by Jose Calderon gave Toronto an 87-75 lead. Bosh had 20 points and 13 rebounds for Toronto. Smith fouled out with only five points and eight rebounds with 2:45 left, one night after having 25 points and 16 rebounds in the Hawks' win at Orlando. A layup by Smith gave Atlanta a 37-30 lead midway through the second quarter, but the Raptors closed the half on a 24-6 run for a 54-43 lead. Johnson, who had only five points in the first half, made three three-pointers in the third quarter. A driving jumper by Acie Law at the end of the quarter cut Toronto's lead to 69-68. The Hawks tried to recover from their slow start to the final period. A three-pointer by Johnson cut Toronto's lead to 90-84, but the comeback ended there.

Chris Bosh believes he's playing the best basketball of his career right now. With yet another superb performance Friday night, it's tough to argue. Bosh poured in 35 points and added nine rebounds to lead the Toronto Raptors to their third straight victory at the Air Canada Centre on Friday, with a 89-78 win over the Atlanta Hawks. The Raptors all-star said his confidence is at the point now where he believes he can score every time he has the ball. ``I feel like that. I've been saying that for two days now. . . well, three or four or five days now,'' Bosh said with a laugh. ``I'm feeling good, I feel very confident, I think everything is just opening up for me. I'm finally at 100 per cent.'' Anthony Parker finished with 18 points in the game that marked the first meeting between the two teams since T.J. Ford suffered a neck injury in Atlanta on Dec. 11. Jose Calderon added 13 points and nine assists for the Raptors (22-18), who won for the fifth time in the last six games. The Raptors took a 67-60 advantage into the fourth quarter of the back-and-forth affair, but broke the game open with a solid performance in the final few minutes, holding off a brief Hawks rally. The young Hawks pulled to within two points with just over five minutes left in the game after a three-pointer by Tyronn Lue. Parker responded with a three _ one of four he had on the night _ and Jamario Moon followed followed with a slam dunk to stretch Toronto's lead back to seven. ``They made some tough shots,'' said Joe Johnson, who topped the Hawks with 25 points. ``I think pretty much every three they hit in the fourth had a hand in their face. I thought we played pretty good defence, they just made tough shots.'' Moon had a huge block on a shot by Johnson the next time down the court, and then Bosh was fouled on a layup and connected on the free throw to put Toronto up by 10 with 3:30 to go. It was all Raptors to the final buzzer, as Calderon had two baskets and Bosh added a layup to pad the lead in front of a capacity crowd of 19,800 at the Air Canada Centre. Josh Smith added 24 points for Atlanta (17-19). The night was yet another in a string of solid performances by Bosh, who has been improving every game out after his early-season struggles _ the product of a foot and knee injury. Bosh shot 12-for-18 on Friday, and went 11-for-14 from the free throw line. Mitchell joked that he didn't want to talk about how well Bosh is playing for fear of jinxing it. But Parker would. ``I'm voting for him for the all-star game. I got a T-shirt ready, I'm going to bring it out,'' Parker said. ``It was one of those games when I looked at the end of the game and he had 35 points. He does so many things out there, and he exerts so much energy. ``He's just put us on his back the last couple of weeks not, and that's a huge reason why we've been able to string a couple of wins together.'' What pleases Mitchell most about Bosh's play is his ability to find his teammates when he draws a double-team. ``Chris does not have to score the ball, he just has to command a double-team,'' Mitchell said. ``Chris is just trusting his teammates and getting the ball out.''

I made this mix to celebrate our playoff appearance for the first time in 9 years!! CONGRATS ATLANTA HAWKS!! This is a mix I made from Sony Vegas 7.0. It wasn't as good as I expected, because I rushed through it quickly. That's because playoffs are coming soon and I wanted to finish the mix before the playoffs started. Anyway, this is a mix of the Atlanta Hawks during the 07-08 season. It features, Joe Johnson, Mike Bibby, Josh Smith, Josh Childress, Marvin Williams, Al Horford, Jeremy Richardson, Acie Law, and Mario West. Please rate and comment. If you like the video and is not a subscriber, please subscribe to me. Paul Pierce Mix is next on the list. I'd like to thank J.S. for providing me with the beat.

Los Angeles Lakers showed complete dominance over the Atlanta Hawks. This is the very same team that defeated the Lakers less than two weeks ago PLUS Mike Bibby! So it was a surprise how poorly they played against the Lakers. I almost felt bad for the players on the Hawks team. They just looked miserable. This is the home debut of Pau Gasol as a Laker and Mike Bibby's Atlanta Hawks debut.

In three NBA seasons, Josh Smith has built a reputation on fierce play in the paint. Smith won't hesitate to shoot jumpers, though, if the Atlanta Hawks need a big basket. ``I'm not a three-point shooter,'' he said, ``but if it comes to me, I'll take it.'' Mike Bibby hit a tying three-pointer in regulation, Smith made two in overtime, and the Hawks beat the Toronto Raptors 127-120 on Wednesday night for their fifth straight victory. Atlanta increased its lead for the eighth and final Eastern Conference playoff spot to four games over Indiana, which lost 92-77 at Boston. Toronto is tied for fifth place with Washington and Philadelphia, but Raptors coach Sam Mitchell might file a protest with the NBA after the officials discounted T.J. Ford's basket with no time remaining. Mitchell argued with referee Mark Wunderlich, who watched the instant replay, that Philips Arena officials started the clock early with just 0.5 seconds remaining. ``We had some opportunities tonight, but things just didn't go our way in the end,'' Mitchell said. ``Sometimes these things happen.'' Smith's three-pointer from the right side, making it 114-113 with 2:05 left in overtime, gave the Hawks their first lead since Josh Childress hit a pair of free throws with 4:25 left in the second quarter. Chris Bosh's three-point play put Atlanta back ahead with 1:18 to play, but Bibby followed with a three before Josh Childress blocked Ford's jump shot. Smith's three from nearly the same spot as his previous attempt made it 122-118. Ford thought his basket at the end of regulation should've counted. The Hawks were fooled badly on the play, which was designed for Ford to line up at the top of the key and run toward Carlos Delfino and catch an inbounds pass. Instead, Ford ran easily into the lane and jumped for Delfino's alley-oop pass. The officials originally ruled that Ford banked in his basket as the horn sounded. ``I thought it could go either way,'' Ford said. ``I didn't want to get too excited.'' Bosh had 24 points for Toronto, and Ford finished with 23 points and 13 assists. Rasho Nesterovic scored 21 points and reserve guard Jose Calderon handed out 10 assists for the Raptors. Joe Johnson led the Hawks with 28 points. Bibby had 26 and Smith finished with 24. Bibby and Johnson combined for 23 assists. Al Horford pulled down 11 rebounds. Bibby forced overtime with a three-pointer from the left corner, taking Childress' inbound bounce pass from the baseline and faking out Ford. Not one to show much emotion, Bibby denied that he celebrated with a little dance. ``It was a walk,'' he said with a smile. ``My mom will not like it.'' Leading by 17 on Nesterovic's runner with 1:09 left in the third, Toronto had almost nothing go right after Jamario Moon's 18-footer gave it a 105-98 lead with 5:19 remaining. The Raptors made just one basket in their last nine possessions of regulation _ a six-foot runner by Ford that gave them a 107-104 lead with 1:32 left. Toronto was 15-for-20 from the field in the third quarter, led by Anthony Parker's 4-for-4, before everyone but Ford and Bosh went cold. ``When you're on the road playing in a tough environment, you have to execute,'' Bosh said. ``The Hawks have been playing very well, and we knew they would make a run. We did a pretty good job withstanding the run, but everything just didn't fall our way tonight. I wouldn't take anything away from Atlanta. They played hard tonight.'' For Smith, who grew up in Atlanta and entered the NBA straight from high school, winning a tight game was just what the playoff-starved Hawks needed. ``We're confident,'' Smith said. ``We feel good about ourselves. We feel like the sky's the limit for this team. We're not taking nights off.'' Notes: With a 35-40 record, Atlanta matched its highest victory total since 2002-03. ... The Hawks, who haven't made the playoffs since 1999, will put first-round tickets on sale Saturday. ... They beat the Raptors for the first time in five tries. ... Nesterovic's three-pointer at the end of the first quarter was his first in 11 career regular-season attempts.

In three NBA seasons, Josh Smith has built a reputation on fierce play in the paint. Smith won't hesitate to shoot jumpers, though, if the Atlanta Hawks need a big basket. ``I'm not a three-point shooter,'' he said, ``but if it comes to me, I'll take it.'' Mike Bibby hit a tying three-pointer in regulation, Smith made two in overtime, and the Hawks beat the Toronto Raptors 127-120 on Wednesday night for their fifth straight victory.

Video show the Highlight of AI in his 2nd NBA season against the Atlanta Hawks. One of the most controversial Basketball players of all time, Allen Iverson is one of the most loved and hated figures in Basketball. Born Allen Ezail Iverson in Hampton, Virginia, he grew up very poor to a struggling mother and a father who deserted him. Growing up, he was very athletic, playing football and basketball throughout most of his education prior to college. Iverson began focusing on basketball at his mother's insistence, despite wanting to be a football player. He proved to be a talented basketball player. At Bethel High School in Newport News, he began his high school basketball career. He developed a reputation of talking a lot and being uncoachable. To say he had a rough childhood is quite an understatement. On one of his places of residence, he walked through knee-deep sewage daily. During one summer, he witnessed the death of almost ten of his closest friends. Iverson first came to the national spotlight in 1993 in a controversial incident surrounding violent events at a bowling alley in Newport News. While the events that happened there will never be fully known, the generally accepted story is that some white students got into an argument with Iverson and his friends. The first question surrounding the event is whether he started it or if the white kids started it. Also, the question surrounded whether or not he assaulted a white woman by hitting her over the head with a chair. The prosecution insisted that surveillance tapes undoubtedly showed Iverson was the culprit, but in reality the tapes showed nothing conclusive. Two factors did him in at his hearing; first of all, two white people said they saw him assault the girl. Secondly, the judge was from the very conservative southeast Virginia establishment and did not have any sympathy for Iverson, his background or his talent. Seeing that Iverson requested a bench trial, this was crucial to his case. To add fuel to the fire, Allen Iverson flew in for the weekend from a tournament to be in Virginia for his trial. This played into the prosecution's hands and also upset the judge, both of whom saw this as evidence that Iverson did not respect the law. He was sentenced to a 5 -year jail term. This case sparked a tremendous amount of national attention. The case caught the interest of Bill Cosby and Spike Lee, who would be a fan and advocate of Iverson for many years. People all around the Newport News area started a movement to free Allen Iverson. He spent only four months in jail. Governor Douglas Wilder pardoned him. This move all but ended his political career and sparked another controversy. Wilder was also black, and white voters in Virginia viewed this move in a very racist light. Iverson was viewed now in much of white America as essentially a convicted felon who was out of prison only because a black man was governor of his state. Iverson got out conditionally, however. He had to adhere to a curfew and could not play basketball until he got his high school diploma. He could not accept a scholarship to the University of Kentucky but did get a scholarship once he completed his high school education in a learning center. During this time, he received his nickname, the answer. He was called such because his friends said he was the answer to basketball's conformity so to speak, people that conformed to this family friendly image, such as Charles Barkley, Isiah Thomas and most importantly, Michael Jordan, who was a childhood hero of his. He accepted a scholarship to Georgetown where John Thompson coached him. Thompson became somewhat of a father figure to him, but he was hard to manage, and the two had a workable but very turbulent relationship. Iverson completed only two years of his education where he became the top NBA draft pick in 1996. He was drafted by the ailing Philadelphia 76ers in 1996. Iverson is immersed in hip-hop culture. This made him an incredibly controversial figure in basketball. His clothing looked more like a gangster rappers than it did Michael Jordan's. On the court he seemed to embody the gangster rapper's image. He had an arm covering on one arm when he played, and also was one of the first players to have cornrows; a hairstyle up until that time was popular in prison. To make matters worse, he had an incredibly "in your face" style, which did not sit well with older players like Charles Barkley, Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen and others. Jordan said of him when Jordan's Bulls played Iverson's 76ers, that he had no respect for the game. Despite this, no one denied Iverson's talent. He could hustle the ball, could get around even the tallest players. He became known for his fast drives to the baskets and his ability to fake the ball in a move called the crossover. Spike Lee lost respect for him when he turned down his invitation to star in the film He Got Game (1998). As a very pointed move, Lee cast former collegiate rival Ray Allen in the part. The Sixers found themselves suddenly a respectable team. They acquired a new coach, the unusual Larry Brown. As a player in the ABA almost twenty years ago, Brown was also a young outsider fighting the system. Larry Brown now was a button-down-suit-and-tie coach. The two did not get along well at first; in fact, their relationship at best was serviceable. Brown was always unhappy with Iverson for not showing up to practice. Iverson insisted his game was pure inspiration, and he had little need for practice. The two rarely saw eye to eye. He received a tremendous number of awards in his short career. He was named rookie of the year in 1997, and on more than one occasion, he was an All NBA First Team, NBA All Star, was an All Star MVP, and received perhaps what was his crowning achievement to date when he was NBA MVP in 2001. That year, Iverson led his team to the NBA finals, but had a rough ride against Kobe Bryant and 'Shaquille ONeal's Lakers. They lost the championship in game five of the series. It was still quite an achievement because the Sixers had not been to the finals since Dr. J (Julius Erving) and Moses Malone led them to victory over the Lakers in 1983 in a 4-0 sweep. Iverson has over 20 tattoos. Each tattoo is a symbol of his life. One denotes the name of his group of friends he has known since childhood, Cru Thik, another who says the answer, another who is dedicated to his mom who is a strong presence as Sixers games, and many others. He married his high school sweetheart Tawanna Turner and they have two children. Won the gold medal at World University Games with the US Team in 1995. Named Big East Rookie of the Year 1995 Named Big East Defensive Player of the Year 1995, 1996. 1st pick in NBA Draft 1996 Was named MVP of the 2000-01 NBA season. Attended Georgetown University from 1994 to 1996 where he was coached by the legendary John Thompson. Drafted first overall by the Philadelphia 76ers in 96. Rookie of the Year 1997. NBA Rookie 1st Team 1997. Rookie All-star game MVP in 1997. NBA All Star 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007. All Star Game MVP 2001, 2005. NBA MVP 2001.(Shortest MVP in MVP history) All NBA First Team 1999, 2000, 2001, 2005. In 2001, Led the 76ers to their first NBA Finals appearance since 1983 (lost to the LA Lakers in 5 games). Played for Georgetown University. Played Quarterback in HS and led his school to state titles in football and basketball his senior year. Under lifetime contract with Reebok.

Released a rap album, Slow Motion, with appearances by his friends Ma$e, Jermaine Dupri, Da Brat and Kool-G-Rap. Georgetown University's all-time leading scorer. Named after his father, Allen Broughton, who left the family and never married Iverson's mother. Since 1998, he has hosted the Allen Iverson Celebrity Classic to benefit the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Hampton Roads, Virginia. Lives on the same street as M. Night Shyamalan.

April 23, 2008 BOSTON -- Mike Bibby can talk about the Celtics fans all he wants now, because it doesn't look like the Hawks will be coming back to Boston. Rajon Rondo silenced Atlanta's blustery point guard -- on the court, at least -- and Kevin Garnett had 19 points and 10 rebounds on Wednesday night as Boston beat the Hawks 96-77 to take a 2-0 lead in the first-round series. Rondo scored 12 points with eight assists and six rebounds, and Paul Pierce returned from a first-quarter knockdown to score 14 points for Boston. "They are coming at us a little bit," said Boston's Ray Allen, who scored 15 points. "You knew what time it was, you knew what they were going to try to do. They were going to attack. And we had to attack right back." The series moves to Atlanta for Games 3 and 4 on Saturday and Monday. The Hawks need to win one -- and they haven't beaten the Celtics yet in five tries this year -- to avoid a sweep and force the series back to Boston. "This has been an experience," said Josh Smith, who had 13 points and eight rebounds. "When we return home, we are going to need our fans as much as ever." Smith helped take Pierce down, landing on him and rolling over his head just 82 seconds into the game. Pierce left for the rest of the first quarter, getting a rubdown for what the team said was a lower back strain; he returned for the start of the second quarter. But it was Bibby who drew the ire of the sold-out Boston Garden crowd. The Hawks guard called the locals fair-weather fans during the week and he was booed at every touch from the opening introductions. As he sat on the bench in the fourth quarter and the game out of reach, the fans chanted "Where is Bibby?" and "Rondo's better." In the first two games of the series combined, Bibby is 4-for-17 from the field with two assists. But he didn't back down afterward. "The people I was talking about know who they are," he said. "If they took offense to it, they must be part of it. I guess they are all bandwagon jumpers." Garnett said he had never been treated like that by opposing fans because he would never say something to fire them up. "It's hard enough to play on the road," he said. "I can't recall ... ever saying anything crazy like that." Fair-weather or not, the Celtics earned the right to play in front of their home fans with the NBA's best record in the regular season. And it's paying off with the 2-0 lead. The crowd brought a buzz to the new Garden, setting the tone with a standing pregame ovation when Garnett was presented with the defensive player of the year award. With the fans chanting for him to pick up another award -- MVP -- Garnett motioned for his teammates to join him at center court, then raised the trophy above his head. "It's not one person but it is all of us that make up this award," he said. The Hawks came out feisty and physical.

April 23, 2008 BOSTON -- Mike Bibby can talk about the Celtics fans all he wants now, because it doesn't look like the Hawks will be coming back to Boston. Rajon Rondo silenced Atlanta's blustery point guard -- on the court, at least -- and Kevin Garnett had 19 points and 10 rebounds on Wednesday night as Boston beat the Hawks 96-77 to take a 2-0 lead in the first-round series. Rondo scored 12 points with eight assists and six rebounds, and Paul Pierce returned from a first-quarter knockdown to score 14 points for Boston. "They are coming at us a little bit," said Boston's Ray Allen, who scored 15 points. "You knew what time it was, you knew what they were going to try to do. They were going to attack. And we had to attack right back." The series moves to Atlanta for Games 3 and 4 on Saturday and Monday. The Hawks need to win one -- and they haven't beaten the Celtics yet in five tries this year -- to avoid a sweep and force the series back to Boston. "This has been an experience," said Josh Smith, who had 13 points and eight rebounds. "When we return home, we are going to need our fans as much as ever." Smith helped take Pierce down, landing on him and rolling over his head just 82 seconds into the game. Pierce left for the rest of the first quarter, getting a rubdown for what the team said was a lower back strain; he returned for the start of the second quarter. But it was Bibby who drew the ire of the sold-out Boston Garden crowd. The Hawks guard called the locals fair-weather fans during the week and he was booed at every touch from the opening introductions. As he sat on the bench in the fourth quarter and the game out of reach, the fans chanted "Where is Bibby?" and "Rondo's better." In the first two games of the series combined, Bibby is 4-for-17 from the field with two assists. But he didn't back down afterward. "The people I was talking about know who they are," he said. "If they took offense to it, they must be part of it. I guess they are all bandwagon jumpers." Garnett said he had never been treated like that by opposing fans because he would never say something to fire them up. "It's hard enough to play on the road," he said. "I can't recall ... ever saying anything crazy like that." Fair-weather or not, the Celtics earned the right to play in front of their home fans with the NBA's best record in the regular season. And it's paying off with the 2-0 lead. The crowd brought a buzz to the new Garden, setting the tone with a standing pregame ovation when Garnett was presented with the defensive player of the year award. With the fans chanting for him to pick up another award -- MVP -- Garnett motioned for his teammates to join him at center court, then raised the trophy above his head. "It's not one person but it is all of us that make up this award," he said. The Hawks came out feisty and physical. When Joe Johnson fouled to keep Pierce from an easy layup, Smith came in from the side and slammed Pierce to the floor, landing on top of his chest before rolling over his head. The Celtics, especially Kendrick Perkins, took exception, and coach Doc Rivers ran onto the court to keep his young center from escalating the incident. Pierce gingerly shot two free throws, making the second and staying in the game despite obvious pain until Rivers called a timeout to sub for him. The Celtics forward flopped onto the court in front of the bench before two people helped him up and escorted him to the locker room. It remained quiet until James Posey of the Celtics was called for a flagrant foul when he knocked Smith to the floor with 8:39 left in the game.

Best sports highlight packages (go through the video section): http://www.youtube.com/blitzmixes DESCRIPTION:February 19, 2008 Kobe Bryant's sore pinkie wasn't an issue. As a result, Pau Gasol's first home game with the Los Angeles Lakers was a snap. Bryant and Gasol each scored 23 points before sitting out the fourth quarter, and the Lakers coasted to a 122-93 victory over the Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday night after building a 41-point lead late in the first half. "It was great. It was a pretty big deal for me,'' Gasol said. "I'm excited and honored to be here with my teammates and these fans. The way we came out and played defense in the first half was pretty impressive. "Obviously the crowd had a lot to do with it. They gave us a lot of energy. I had a chance to play my first home game as a Laker, and I wanted to give the fans a little taste of what it's going to be from now on with me and the team.'' Bryant, who dislocated his right pinkie during the Lakers' 7-2 trip, was 8-for-16 from the field with five steals, five rebounds and three assists. He played free and easy and didn't seem at all inhibited by the ailing finger, making a pair of dunks and going 1-for-4 from 3-point range. The 10-time All-Star and two-time defending NBA scoring champ has averaged 30.4 points over his last five games after scoring 11 on 4-for-16 shooting in a 98-95 loss in Atlanta on Feb. 6. Bryant risked having to sit out this one had he not played in an All-Star game, so he suited up in New Orleans on Sunday and spent only 2 minutes, 52 seconds on the court to rest his sore finger. "The X-rays and the diagnosis from the doctor were shocking to everybody, but it feels fine,'' said Bryant, who decided not to undergo surgery and play through it. "I hit it a couple of times and whacked it pretty good. It was a little sore for a couple of minutes and then it went away. I'm used to it now. It's nothing but a little pain and a little soreness. You've just got to deal with it.'' Lamar Odom, coming off his 12th career triple-double, also sat out the final quarter after getting 17 points and 15 rebounds. The Lakers won their fifth straight, finishing at 51 percent from the field and improving to 18-1 when shooting at least 50 percent. Mike Bibby played his first game with the Hawks following Saturday's trade from Sacramento, finishing with just five points and three assists in 16-plus minutes. He picked up his fourth foul with 9:33 left in the third quarter and going to the bench for good with Atlanta down by 35. "It was the second day I was with the guys, you know. It will come,'' Bibby said. "They jumped on us pretty early. They were pressuring us, forcing turnovers and scoring easy baskets.'' Joe Johnson had 18 points for the Hawks, who lost their season-worst fifth straight and sixth in a row on the road. Rookie center Al Horford, who had a career-high 20 rebounds against the Lakers the last time the teams met, picked up two fouls in his first 7 minutes on the floor and finished with five boards. Atlanta's Josh Childress had 16 points in 30 minutes after missing one game with a hyperextended right knee. He hit a 3-point buzzer-beater from 27 feet to end the first half, but all that did was trim Los Angeles' lead to 73-37. After making things miserable for Bibby in his first game with the Hawks, the Lakers will be Shaquille O'Neal's first opponent as a member of Phoenix Suns on Wednesday night when he faces the team he helped lead to three straight NBA titles. A win would tie the Lakers with Phoenix for first place in the Pacific Division. "I do not care about that, for the last time,'' said Bryant, who was O'Neal's teammate for seven seasons and wasn't on the best of terms with him when he was traded to Miami in 2004. "Phoenix is at a level we're trying to get to. Even though they changed their team a little bit by trading Shawn (Marion), they're still one of the top teams in the league. So it's a big challenge for us, and I'm interested to see how we stack up.'' Bibby also will face his ex-teammates on Wednesday when the Hawks travel to Sacramento. The 29-year-old point guard averaged 13.5 points and 5.0 assists in 15 games for the Kings after missing their first 36 games while recovering from surgery to repair a torn ligament in his left thumb. ============================ EDITED BY BRUCE BLITZ ============================
