Teague, not Crawford, to start Game 1 vs. CHI
Jeff Teague - G - Atlanta Hawks
May 2, 2011 - 11:10 AM ET

Head Coach Larry Drew said that Jeff Teague will draw the start in Game 1 vs. Chicago in the absence of Kirk Hinrich.

This confirms what we had previously speculated, as Drew would be foolish to disrupt Crawford in his sixth man role right now. Although he doesn't factor to make a splash in the box score, his quickness should help to counter Derrick Rose's attack.
