  1. The funny thing about his only highlights in college was that he could only use his left hand...his GOOD hand, the right, was in an immovable cast. He couldn't bend his wrist. 14 points, 10 boards, 5 blocks...2-3 FG, all with his off hand. I hope he stays for another year, for obvious reasons...

    Next up are Portland and Seatle, both 4 games under .500. The Hawks are doomed.


    Let's hope not, and I know we'll win them both because we're so good on the road...out west

    We are actually a pretty deep team when everyone is healthy.

    I think

    Smoove

    Williams

    Williams

    Childress

    Zaza

    Wright

    JJ

    Salim

    Lue

    Speedy

    is a 10 deep team. Jones is quality, too.

    It doesn't take many injuries in the NBA to look pretty thin.


    Perhaps when everyone is healthy, we may have some adequate role players, maybe, but we don't have "depth". There is a significant drop off from our starters to our bench, especially now. Since we're hurt, our bench is really below average for NBA players.

    Smoove was not the difference in this game. With him, we would not have "very easily" won this game.


    Did you even watch the game. It was tied for Chrissakes.

    The Hawks were only down 2 when the Cavs missed a foul shot which Freije promptly tipped to Lebron for a layup. Then he commits an offensive foul for a turnover and the Cavs hit a 3.

    When a game is tied it can go either way. It wasn't like the Cavs were a sure thing to win going into the 4th quarter tied. JJ, Lue and Zaza were clowning them.


    you are basically operating on hypotheticals there. i am forming my opinion based on what I saw from Frieje and Salim along with the rest of the Hawks team in the 4th.

    even if Smoove doesn't go Woody still would have been playing some guys that have no business seeing the floor on a competitive team.


    Exactly. I did watch the game, and Smoove was doing nothing that would suggest with him in the game we had an easy win.

    It is apologists like you and Suckup Smith at the AJC which allow this madness to continue. when we comeback from the road roadtrip 6-18 you will be saying "Well we had so many injuries..and such and such." GTFU with that nonsense.


    First of all we won't come back 6-18 and I'll put money on that. Secondly, injuries do affect your team. If we are missing Childress, Marvin, & Smith, you think that doesn't matter?


    Sure injuries matters, but that doesn't change our record. Don't you think that comes into consideration when we're discussing up-coming games? Face it, rough waters ahead. I hate it, and hope it doesn't happen, but everyone knows what is in store through the X-mas holidays.

    Yes we do have the players. If Smith doesn't get him in the eye the Hawks could have very easily won this game.


    Smoove was not the difference in this game. With him, we would not have "very easily" won this game. I'm sorry, he was not the difference between and win and a loss tonight.

  7. Hmmm...how quickly things have changed. I suggest that we are going to struggle the next 11 games, and after one, people are already saying we're going to lose the next five. Interesting...

    A few thoughts:

    If Matt F. isn't making shots (which aren't even close) why is he in the game? He is embarrassing..

    Does Childress have a broken foot? If so, why is he jumping around on the sideline like he is a cheerleader?

    Why is T. Lue guarding Bron'? Again...why is T. Lue guarding Bron'?
