Another NBA season of treading water by the Atlanta Hawks has reached its predictable endpoint with a Play-In Tournament loss to the Miami Heat. The questions now become whether they plan to finally bolt from the treadmill of mediocrity and which direction they want to head during the upcoming offseason.

The Miami Heat and Atlanta Hawks will play each other for the final spot in the Eastern Conference playoffs today.

Tyler Herro scored 30 points while sinking two 3-pointers in overtime and the Miami Heat regrouped after losing an early lead to beat the Atlanta Hawks 123-114 on Friday night and make NBA Play-In Tournament history.
