Inside: The Week In Sports
The NBA
Mike Bibby's veteran leadership has turned the young Hawks into contenders in the East • Making himself at home in Charlotte, Boris Diaw is taking advantage of mismatches at the four spot
The NFL
Peter King's All-Pro picks signal a passing of the torch: Out with the T.O.'s and in with the Andre Johnsons • Some old faithfuls on the list include the Ravens' Ray Lewis and Ed Reed
HIGH POINT
With a league-best 27--2 record at the time, Paul Pierce led the Celtics in a pregame pump-up before their Christmas Day matchup with the Lakers in Los Angeles. It's been all letdown from there.
