He just needs to stop shooting anything outside of the paint. Once he starts getting some shots inside, then he can start jacking up a little bit.

If we stop playing like absolute garbage we can kill these guys.

How about we hit the rim next time up.

Team defense has been the main problem... when Joe is guarding Rip one on one he has done a very good job. Can't say the same for Lue of course, but the main problem has been the To's and us not getting back on defense to stop them in transition.

Yeah... Horford's playing time should be as high as possible. When Pachulia comes back I am hoping that he does not eat up any of Horford's minutes... he could take all of Shelden's for all I care, but we are a different team inside with Horford, and he needs to be out there as much as possible.

On other news. Durant really looks like the real deal so far.. 24, 8, and 5 on 10 - 19 shooting.

I don't mind them taking those shots inside. If anyone but Steve Jabey was reffing Horford would have been to the line at least on four different occasions tonight.

Acie needs to get the majority if the pg minutes on this team... he's the best pg by far.

MARV!!!!!

Hamilton is one of the best defenders at his position, he's definitely bothering Joe.

Acie needs to never leave the game

Acie Law is the wind beneath my wings.

he's a fitting outlet for frustration

Shelden and Nasr going at it amuses me.

His shot selection has been the most impressive for me. He hasn't forced a single shot so far... that's tough to do for a scoring pg.

Shelden is terrible. It's been a while since I've seen a player with that total lack of skill... good thing for him that he's a wide body.

it would be nice if the refs called some fouls

First time I'm gonna be able to see a game live in over a year. Damn I'm excited.

Where can we read people's reply to the article?

I'm high on Huston. I get the feeling that This is the year they stay healthy (Yao and Mcgrady). McGrady is playing so determined so far this year, that if they can in fact remain healthy they will make a championship run.

Yeah, getting nothing from Chillz and Zaza and a sub-par game from Smoove and we still beat a team that finished with the best record in the NBA last year. That is, to say the least, encouraging.

I don't mind Lue jacking up shots at the end of the game when he is hitting them. If he has an off night, then we can always go to Law or Speedy (if and when he's healthy)... but if he is on, he is the clutchest player on the team along with JJ and the only other perimeter player that can create his own shot.

The "Horrible" in your thread title is quite redundant. Terrance Moore is a total joke, or rather, the joke is that a newspaper would hire someone like him to be the local sports writer. He is obviously a fan of some other sports teams, and he obviously has an Agenda of pure hate and resentment to EVERY sports team in this city... Why this guy continues to work for the AJC is beyond me.

The call on the Barrea flop on Law almost made me puke. I hate how "rookies" get called a different game than the rest of the players and everyone is "ok" with it.

It's a little tough to know who exactly is to blame for those shots without really analyzing each of the possessions that lead to the them... however, I think it's safe to say that J-smoove was to blame for a few of them... he played a "good" game, but he needs to play smarter day in day out for us to be a real threat. I think he would agree.
