Hawks coach Mike Woodson and Josh Smith finally had their training camp dust-up Tuesday, ringing in yet another year together. Woodson called his team together in a practice-ending huddle and began his speech by telling his team that they needed to take their game to another level with the regular season approaching. He mentioned Smith by name, which prompted the fifth-year forward to react by saying he was willing to "take all the blame." After a brief exchange the huddle broke and Smith headed for the locker room steaming at being called out and shattered his mouthpiece case against a wall. Woodson, smiling the entire time, warned his assistants and other players that Smith would be fine and that they shouldn't worry. "Listen, it's getting close to that time and we can't go into this thing being cool about anything," Woodson said long after the buzz had died down. "We had a good run last year and that run is over. You've got to build on that run. And the only way you do that is through hard work, on the floor and that carrying over into games."
