Josh Smith apologized for his obscene gestures when the Hawks were playing in Charlotte on Saturday.  He is still waiting to hear about a potential fine or suspension.

"I just wanted to apologize to my teammates, the organization and Hawks fans for acting out the way I did," Smith said. "I know I kind of went out of character a bit, but I was frustrated and let my emotions get the best of me during a crucial time. I'm not making excuses for myself when I say that; I'm just telling you what really happened.

"But again, I want to apologize to my teammates, the organization and the fans for what happened. Because that's not the way it's supposed it happen."
