i dont know bout yall but i cant wait for heat wednsday, i wanna see where we at. zaza vs shaq, smith vs walker, marvin vs posey. this is gonna be good.

Quote: a) we aren't tanking b) given the standings, we are pretty much guaranteed to give phoenix the 8th pick OR WORSE if we try to win out with our easy schedule...big deal if we give them pick 8/9/10/11... c) we aren't tanking im co signing with you, if we tank i players will loose confidence and smith might not wanna sign with us

smoove or al jefferson

Quote: Quote: pierce is better than JJ to be honest, plus the others was kickin our A55 so he wasnt needed. Stats say otherwise. Add the fact that JJ is 5-6 years younger and there is no way I'd take Pierce over JJ. pierce may be older but think about it, pierce has benn better longer than jj, he hits more game winners and when he got injured boston stunk it up.. they went 21-29 with him in the line up..which isnt good 0-18 without him. if he played in 18 of those games they would go at least 9-9 which will be 30-38 which will prob put em in the playoffs. pp is a future hall of famer

Quote: Quote: When you factor in Smoove improving upon what he's doing this year combined with the fact that Durant will be a freaking rookie, I don't see how anyone can possibly say that. Look at Lebron's and Melo's 1st year. Similar talents with IMO Durant being better than Melo. Statistically significantly better as rookies than JS is now. Mind you JS has the blocks but Durant can get the steal and the block extremely well. His defense is WAY under-rated only because his offense is awe inspiring. W he will score more because he might go to a team that he will have to score alot to have any chance at winning games. smith had a sorry coach(woodson) and 2 all hogs(harrington and walker) then they brought jj who is way better than those 2. just because you score more dont mean you better....durant have to bulk up a little because because i think hes at least 6'9'' right? that means he will have to guard garnett, duncan, amare etc ...but if he dont bulk up he will just be a threat offensively on defensively.

and while im at it,i dont mine woody calling out folks but he never mentions the mistakes he made in the game...maybe he should have said "maybe i should have did a better job managing the game". he never does

Quote: Quote: Smoove is better than everybody on the defensive end on this team. It's about damn time he called out Chill and Marvin for their pitiful play. This team just sucks defensively.... I am sorry but Smoove is no better than Zaza in man to man coverage. He is a good weakside blocker, that's about it. are you serious, zaza is a horrible defender..smoove is not a great defender but at least he does something on defense, he blocks shots and and steals..zaza shows us nothing, nothing at all. the only negative thing about smoove on D is hes defender shoots jump shots over him easily thats it.

can u post a link

what website can you go to watch hawks games, i forgot what it was

Quote: Good grief, Paul Pierce??? Ugh. I watched a ton of Boston games while living in Connecticut and Joe is simply better than Pierce. Paul disappears and is moody as all get out. He's a chucker no doubt about it. Plus his defense is soft. We can JO without trading JJ IMO. The Pacers have to tear it completely down and start over again. They will want to clear cap, thus we can send other players for JO while keeping our All-Star. I agree that you have to look at any and all trades regardless of the player, but the trades you mention aren't worth what we have in JJ. pierce is better than JJ to be honest, plus the others was kickin our A55 so he wasnt needed.

Quote: I would be happy to take your bet that Durant will be better than Smith in one of the following categories: points, rebounds, assists, blocks. PM me to arrange details. he will probably will only average 3-5 more points than smith and maybe get josh in one more category. but he will do that in his 3rd or 4th year projected stats durant- 28 points 9 rebounds 4 assist smith- 23 points 8 rebounds 6 assist and 2.5 blocks

philly one

we forgot bout ben gordon and lou deng

smoove right now is our only consistant player, he had 19 points last night and folks wanna criticixe him on 1 game. shelden shows me nothing,zip, nada bk made a mistake and you know it.

http://boards.atlantafalcons.com/index.php...1entry3801211 there bashing that dude who said the hawks should trade jj

i wish i could watch games live on the computer for free

Quote: Are you kidding me? k-smoove and j-smoove are nothing alike...totally different better shooter- k-smoove better slasher- j-smoove scoring- k-smoove better d- j-smoove faster- j-smoove quicker- k-smoove better handles- k-smoove better passer- nobody really but i guess j-smoove honestly k smoove will be better but not by much. sort of like kobe>pierce both GREAT GREAT players but kobe is just better but nobody gives a duck because both are good.

Quote: It's not about record. It's about what teams do ahead of us. People act as if there is an unwritten number of victories you have to get. Not the case. It depends on what those three teams ahead of us do. you maybe right but we got to win games like were doing now. it helps not if they the teams above us keep losing AND we keep losing.

Quote: Until Smoove leads the Hawks over the better teams in the league(I am talking Dallas,Phoenix,San Antonio and even Miami) the media won't give smoove respect. If you want to be one of the best players you have to take over games and win vs elite talent. From what I have seen of Durant he is going to be a top NBA talent and even though its college ball makes the big shot. I am betting in 2 yrs in the league Durant will be an all star better than Smoove. it depends, are you you basing that on scoring, stats or overall play. smoove will give you 23 8 and 3(blocks) in a year or 2. durant might develop quicker and he may average more points IF he gets drafted by a team like memphis. smith will be more important to his team but durant will be more of a scoring threat like t-mac. smith wont give you 29 like durant might but smith will be better overall.

if we can go at least 6-3 the rest of march and if we can go 7-2 in april that will make us 38-45 for the year which MIGHT get us in. i hope we make it so smoove can get some exposure, this get is playing freat. look at wade, he got noticed in the playoffs against new orleans. the bad thing is our ciach is mike woodson.

congratulations on post #27 dont have to get smart on the boards, i was just giving you my opinion.

Quote: Quote: Let me mention 1 by name: Orlando Magic. The Magic will have more money than us. Smoove and Howard would love to play together. Who is to say that the Magic doesn't take a shot at Smoove? I think they will and it would look very good to Smoove if we're not talking right. if Orlando want to raise the price obviously the Hawks have to match plus the 6th year. the point is there won't be 5 teams trying to make a move on Josh Smith. there may be 1 or 2 outside of the Hawks. btw the Hawks need to make a push for a player that is up for an extension soon so they can bring him in before they have to spend all their cap money on resigning Josh Smith. if atlanta said they wasnt gonna sign josh smith then they would be 8-10 teams wanting him because he is rare to come buy. i know some of the owners and they said they like josh smith.

because my computer wont let me chat

good take marv

we should win todday
