Winning Ugly.....

A win is a win.

The Atlanta Hawks will take it.   Last night they got a gift from the refs.

From the Athens Banner-Herald:

Flagrant foul foils Clippers

ATLANTA - Al Horford made two free throws with 0.6 seconds remaining following a flagrant foul by Blake Griffin, giving the Atlanta Hawks a 101-100 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday night.

Atlanta center Al Horford (15) embraces teammate Josh Smith after hitting two free throws in the final seconds of Friday’s win.

Griffin sent Marvin Williams and then Horford to the floor with hard fouls in the final seconds. The last was the most costly, though Clippers coach Vinny Del Negro argued against the flagrant ruling.

Jamal Crawford had 34 points, 16 in the third quarter. Atlanta's two All-Stars had big games: Horford had 23 points and 12 rebounds, and Joe Johnson added 17 points, nine assists and nine rebounds.
