+1 Didn't like him since day one myself. Too bad he may have set us back a couple of years. Still, this makes this years humiliation worth it. We could have made it a series and still lost and still extended Woody.

Whoa! Slow down. I'd settle for at least recognizing it as an issue. One step at a time.

I'd take Kontract (the player) over Marvin right now.

I doubt he'll eat his crow. Regardless every time I see how classy LeBron is handling it (it really hurt to type that) it makes me laugh even harder at this fail of a thread.

Me too. But I'd still consider Casey a very likely upgrade over Woody.

Doesn't make me go YES!!! But I'd still say taking a chance on him would be an upgrade over extending Woody. When the Falcons hired Smith as their head coach it didn't "wow" me either. Turned out to be a great hire. I'm willing to hire a no-name assistant if the organization is going to do it on the cheap anyway.

...or iso-SF,PF,SG that would stick Teague in a corner. Hopefully not a whole lot of ISO-anything. Even if good ball movement doesn't get us past the 2nd round it will be enjoyable to watch and a much needed change for my iso-sore eyes.

Woody is the king at saying the right things to keep his job. Teague will be our PG next season but hopefully we won't be seeing much iso-Teague.

We are already overpaying a "proven guy who can run an offense with a GREAT A/TO ratio." For the 123223435th time his name is Mike Bibby. Yet you want to sign another Mike Bibby with worse defense??? No thank you. Teague is our guy especially if we get an offensive minded coach. Teague plays above average D and is an above average passer who can take advantage of our young athletic runners. Teague is the perfect team for the way it is manned now. We just have to find a coach who takes advantage of the pieces we have not one who tries the square pegs round hole theory.

No, that's Woody trying to be the likable coach. In the same paragraph he says if you'll do what we're telling you to do we'll win. Look, Woody was the King at saying the right thing but never actually backing it up. The fact that the whole world was telling him to change his offense and switching D and he still did nothing proves how hard headed this guy is.

I don't remember Deke or Smitty being booed or "run out of town" by the fans. They were and still remain fan favorites. You really need to work on your comparison skills because so far, in this thread alone, you're shooting an 0'fer.

I agree but no once knew CP would be the player he is. Had Marvin been a superstar and Paul an average PG it wouldn't have been that bad of a pick. The consensus was just that so even though it turned out to be horrid it wasn't his worst one.

Now I do remember that. But that's no where near what little D claimed. Maybe he meant Marvin?

He couldn't have gone anywhere else unlike the names you mentioned. Never put anyone under the bus?? He put his entire team under the bus at the expense of their season for the past two years. Every year, including this yea,r he said we weren't good enough to advance just so he could keep his job. That's the most gutless thing a coach could do. Sounds like someone has a skewed image of him due to being a neighbor. I know this is his appreciation thread but let's not venture too far out of reality with this.

LOL! So JJ came here to do us lowly Atlanta fans a favor? Please. He came here to be "the man" and earn a max deal after that. He didn't come here because he felt he was doing us or our franchise a favor. You're either an idiot if you think so or your just in denial of a player you like. He earned those boo's with his play and then he earned even more with his mouth. We owe him nothing because I promise you he's never made any decision based on how it would affect any franchise only his bank account. Before this ordeal I thought he wanted to much money. After these playoffs and his mouth I'm glad he didn't take the original offer much less a max deal from us. Good bye and good riddance.

I wasn't a huge BK fan myself but in his defense nearly everyone who mattered had Marvin pretty high. But it still didn't fill a dire need for our team so that's why I was against the pick.

Yeah cause they were so competitive from the start for the 3 games prior lol. I think the fans gave them 12 quarters worth of opportunities to earn some cheers. Don't think they wanted to give them 15 especially not after our "leaders" comments.

I agree. It's true that team was aging but it was still a very very good team. A new head coach and some better bench depth and that team had a couple of more runs left in them for sure. Broke my heart to hear Smitty was traded for a POS like Rider.

What!?! He was a head case WAY before that trade. That's why it was such a panic driven horrible trade.It was a trade that had no shot at working and was one of Babs worst trades in his career.

Had we swept the Bucks and won a game or two against O-town Woody might have once again somehow managed to save his job. If we were going to go out in the 2nd round this was probably the best way to go out for the future of the franchise. Woody has to be gone now and allthough I really hated the way it ended I believe it was time to let Joe go and try to earn that max check in NY. I was going to wish him the best but now that my questions about his true self are answered I hope they ream him a new one. And they will, oh how they will. I'm not ready to give up on this franchise yet or try and compare them to the old Smitty/Mook hawks of yesteryear. This franchise isn't close to resembling itself of that time. It's still very young and that is huge. I hope we've (ASG) has finally ID'd the problem and will work to fix it. A new coach and this talented team will be back in the hunt. Ding-Dong the Wood is dead!!!

I think he had the highest 4th quarter ppg?

I appreciate Woody for coaching like his job depended on it.

Not to mention he was here for MANY more years after that trade. For or against it, neither the trade or the radio station isn't why Lenny was let go (or any of the other coaches mentioned lol)..

When can we see it?

Sarcasm much?
