ATLANTA--With Steve Smith leading the way, the Atlanta Hawks jumped to a 21-point lead in the first quarter and went on to beat the Charlotte Hornets 100-88 last night.
Charlotte (1-4) is struggling with Anthony Mason out for the season and Glen Rice sidelined for at least six weeks after elbow surgery. The Hawks, on the other hand, bolstered their bench after the lockout and have started the season with four victories in five games.
