While the Hawks received a lot of criticism for their poor performance in the preseason, the team around All-Star guard Joe Johnson pulled off an amazing start as they won five consecutive games so far. Especially Atlanta's balanced offense and aggressiveness in the paint were key factors that helped them to steamroll their opponents in the first two weeks of regular season action. Thus, Joe Johnson and the Atlanta Hawks will meet the Minnesota Timberwolves on Saturday at midnight GMT.

The T-Wolves on the other hand only won one out of four games up to this point and experienced considerable problems as far as their offensive productivity is concerned. Averaging just 88 points a game, Michael Beasley and company have yet to efficiently execute the triangle offense implemented by coach Kurt Rambis in the off-season. So far, the only player who put up solid numbers for the Timberwolves has been Kevin Love, recording 15.5 points and 11.3 rebounds despite playing just 25 minutes per contest. In this sense, it looks like Minnesota might have a tough time slowing down the Hawks on Saturday night.
