With the win, the Hawks advance to the NBA Playoffs, and will now face the #1 seeded Cleveland Cavaliers. That's certainly going to be a difficult test for Atlanta, but anything is possible. On a positive note, at least the team can celebrate playoff appearance, though it could be short-lived.
With the loss, the Miami Heat season comes to an end. The team needs to add more superstar talent, especially to fill the gap that was once filled by superstar Jimmy Butler. Players like Herro and Adebayo are solid pieces, but you'll need more than that to win it all in this league.
