Boston — Sunday may have marked coach Mike Woodson's final outing under contract with the Hawks. His contract ends June 30. There has been no official word on whether or not he'll receive a new contract.

And Woodson refused to discuss his job status during the postgame media session.

Hawks captain and All-Star Joe Johnson is firmly entrenched in the Woodson camp, though.

"I hope he comes back," Johnson said Sunday. "I hope we're able to bring him and his entire coaching staff back. That was one of the main attractions for me coming here [from Phoenix three years ago], so I would definitely love to see him come back.

"I've learned a lot from all of those guys. They've taught us all a lot. I would definitely love to see them come back."
