Open thread: Wizards (21-58) at Hawks (44-35)

The Wizards will have a reunion with Kirk Hinrich and Hilton Armstrong on Saturday as the Atlanta Hawks come to town seeking to snap a three-game losing streak. The Wizards have lost their three previous meetings against the Hawks and all came before the teams connected near the deadline on a trade that shipped Hinrich and Armstrong to the Hawks in exchange for Mike Bibby, Jordan Crawford, Maurice Evans and a 2011 first-round pick. Bibby has since moved onto the Miami Heat, but despite a 6-18 record, the Wizards have been pleased with the deal. The Hawks are just 10-12 since making the trade, but they have been struggling for some time. Since defeating the Wizards, 99-92, on Feb. 5, they have gone 11-18.
