Today's games are all exciting, but there is one game that is easily overlooked, that is the Eagles' 124-122 victory over the Suns.

Both teams have no stars, are not popular, and do not receive much attention. But in fact, in this game, the Eagles staged a big reversal. They were 22 points behind at one point and 18 points behind at the beginning of the last quarter, but they narrowly won by 2 points in the end.

Not only that, this game is the fifth consecutive game for the Eagles!

After 4 wins and 5 losses at the beginning of the season, the Hawks won 5 consecutive victories, reaching a record of 9 wins and 5 losses, rising to fourth in the Eastern Conference, and suddenly transformed from a weakling to a powerful player.

In this five-game winning streak, starting from the defeat of the Lakers, the teams defeated are all from the Western Conference, namely the Lakers, Clippers, Kings, Jazz, and Suns. They can be called Western killers.

The Eagles have a record of 9 wins and 5 losses this season, but they are 5 wins and 1 loss against Western Conference teams. It is said that the West is strong and the East is weak, and the Eagles are playing elite games.

On November 9, the Lakers started five consecutive away games, and their first opponent was the Hawks. At that time, the Hawks were only 4 wins and 5 losses, Trae Young was still absent, and the lineup was uneven. Just when everyone thought that the Lakers could win five consecutive away games, the Lakers suffered a beating from the Hawks.

That game also caused a lot of discussion, and many people even thought it was a "match-fixing"! Especially when the Lakers subsequently defeated the Hornets, Pelicans, and Bucks on the road, ending their five-game away streak with 3 wins and 2 losses, the game they lost to the Hawks would still be mentioned.

But in fact, it is not only the Lakers who are winning, but the Eagles are stronger.

After defeating the Lakers, the Eagles defeated the Clippers, Kings, and Jazz away from home. Although the records of these three teams are not ideal, the ability to win consecutive away games is enough to show the Eagles' tenacity and strength. They are not weaklings.

After defeating the Suns today, the Hawks have also won five consecutive games with a record of 9 wins and 5 losses. Although it is still not as good as the Lakers' 10 wins and 4 losses, their four consecutive away wins and recent momentum are even better than the Lakers. Therefore, the Lakers' defeat to the Hawks is really not a "match-fixing".

During this period, Hawks player Johnson performed well. He played 4 times during the 5-game winning streak, averaging 24 points, 12 rebounds and 9.2 assists per game, with a shooting percentage of 60%, even better than Trae Young.

Of course, this is just the beginning, and it is not enough to prove that the Hawks can be so strong in the future. The real test will come next. The Hawks will face the Pistons, No. 1 in the East, and the Spurs, No. 5 in the West. Then they will face the underdogs Pelicans, Hornets, and Wizards. Generally speaking, if the Eagles can seize the opportunity, the ranking may continue to rise.
