On Friday night we witnessed the Trae Young-less Atlanta Hawks complete their first three game winning streak for the first time since the very first month of the season, led by uber-popular Dejounte Murray (considering trade rumors) and the bench (of which whom doubled Miami's bench in scoring).
In back-to-back games Murray willed the Hawks to victory in game-winning effort, this time versus the Miami Heat on South Beach.
What did you learn from this win (if anything)?
Was this a sign of Atlanta maturing as a team before our eyes?
Has Dejounte Murray answered our questions regarding the vacancy left behind as the team's emotional and vocal leader?
Why does this win feel so "different"?
Has Murray's asking price increased with his recent success?

On Wednesday, the Atlanta Hawks completed their first set of back-to-back wins of the calendar year by defeating their much improved divisional foe the Orlando Magic at State Farm Arena.
In a relatively low scoring game that featured some of the league's youngest rising stars (Jalen Johnson and Paolo Banchero), highlighted by some baptising dunks (...and a few turnovers), our Atlanta Hawks displayed what most had been searching for in recent weeks (or months)... defensive effort.
Tenitra Batiste and DeShaun Tate dive deep inside the Atlanta Hawks' urgency to win despite recent struggles.
