JASON COLLINS RUMORS
Hawks shake up lineup for Game 5
Larry Drew is moving Kirk Hinrich and Jason Collins to the bench. I expected Al Horford to start. Even if he's still rusty, Horford is a better option than Collins.
Marvin Williams is shooting 21% in this series. I'm guessing Drew wants him to defend Paul Pierce?
This switch will put either Rajon Rondo or Avery Bradley on Joe Johnson.
Desperate times call for desperate measures.
