Indeed the whole team was amazed to learn of the tournament that pits the best teams against each other at the end of the year. Woodson handed out their t-shirts that read "Atlanta Hawks 2008 - Not That Bad" on one side and "Almost A Winning Record" on the back in celebration of the feat. "This is just so great," said Joe Johnson. "To be on the precipice of destruction at the hands of the Celtics, it feels really good. If I close my eyes I can almost feel Kevin Garnett posting up on me for a dunk right now. This is gonna be fun."
