Marvin would be putting up better numbers if it weren't for Woody. Woody is too Coaching as Brittney Spears is too the human race: an INSULT!

JJ.. our franchise player who is the soul of our team, is averaging an absolutely ridiculous 46 min! the last six games... Why is our best player averaging an inhuman 46 min a game when we don't have a prayer at the playoffs... ah yes, the answer is easy, because Mike Woodson is an imbecil. Not only does woodson take out our supporting players when they are hot (marvin the last two weeks, Smoove at the beginning of the year)... Play Tyronne lue more minutes than both Speedy and AJ despite just coming off an injury... not only does he not call any ofensive sets, and calls plays for our 12th man to take the final shot at the end of games... Not only does he complain that our 5th pick isn't aggressive and athletic and then refuses to play our young and athletic PF/Cs (Esteban and Solomon)... But he is also wearing the hell out off the player who will have to carry our franchise on his back for the next 6 years, despite the fact that we are totally out of the playoff picture. anyways before I go get drunk to ease the pain of another inept coaching display of titanic propotions... I would like to extend my thanks to the coach of the Atlanta Hawks, without whom I could never have become the Atlantaholic that I am... THanks Woodster! You ROCK!

Josh Smith is a bright light at the end of a long and dark tunnel

Tanking...everybody's doing it. W I don't know if everybody... but Mike Woodson sure looks like he is

Quote: hes dumb when it comes to coaching. Mike Woodson is dumb PERIOD. I don't know how this guy made it to being a professional coach in the first place. Unless he is tanking (which at times it seems like the only feasible explanation for his decisions), Mike Woodson will go down as one of the worst coaches in the history of the NBA. Perhaps even the worst. Woody =

Does anyone else have problems watching highlights on NBA TV broadband?? Everytime I try to watch anything, the NBA TV broadband window pops up, shows a comercial and then immedieatly following the commercial I get an error message and my explorer closes. This happens EVERY time!... I am Currently living in Mexico city, and these Highlights are the only way I can watch the Hawks in action. If anyone knows how to fix this or has any suggestions I beg you to have a heart and help out -----I have already read all the info in the FAQ's section of NBA tv broadband, but nothing addressed there seems to fix it. I don't think the problem is my explorer or my computer because I have tried to watch it on Firefox, and in different computers and it still doesn't work---

I was at the game when Atlanta beat Detroit in the playoffs during Dumars' last season. I believe the clincher was in the Georgia Tech stadium and I remember hearing Dumars' say how pathetic it was that his last game was in a college staduim in front of the lousy Hawks fans or something like that... what a cry baby

I'll Start: My fondest Hawk memory was a game against Philadelphia in 1998 or 1999 season (can't remember exactly) and I believe it took place in the Georgia Dome. Being a young lad and the only Hawks fan in the family, it was not often that I got a chance to attend a game. Needless to say I was excited from the onset. However, what I remember about this game was its amazing finish… The game had been close throughout, but the 76ers seemed to have the game in the bag during the closing seconds. The Hawks were down by 3 points with, I believe, less than 4 seconds left in the game. Theo Ratliff (I think he was shooting 78% from the line that year) was standing on the free-throw line waiting too nail the last nail in the coffin. I remember that most of the crowd had gotten up and was headed for the parking lot. My dad gave me a look as if saying "we should start doing the same". Fortunately I convinced him too stay, because Theo, in a foreboding act of ineptitude (he would, of course, later become one of the most inept players for our miserably underachieving JT – Reef teams), missed both the shots. Now with under three seconds, the hawks had the ball. No timeouts were left, so they were forced to inbound the ball from under their own basket. The Philly defenders were, understandably, all over Steve Smith nizzuts, and with the five second count looming the ball was inbounded to non other than Tyrone Corbin. Ty caught the ball turned around, took two dribbles to half-court, and launched up the ugliest looking shot ever seen in the history of the sport. That ugly shot, however, banked in as the buzzer sounded. The crowd that had not yet reached the parking lot came storming back into the stands in a frenzy, and as Overtime got started, and the Hawks took momentum hostage and rolled over the 76ers, everyone was standing, screaming, and waiving stuff over their heads. I had never seen a crowd get so into it in a game of basketball ever before, and it was the time that I was most proud of being a fan.

Hello everybody. Like all of you here I suffer from the unfortunate affliction of being a fan of the Atlanta Hawks. Being a die-hard fan of the Hawks, like most of you know, is the NBA equivalent of being in an abusive relationship = you give all your time and love for something and get nothing but a nice firm backhand to the face in return (Sheldon Williams, no Chris Paul, The three stooges at Point). None the less, like in any relationship, no matter how god awful, there are bound to be some happy, fond memories. I was curious to know what these moments were for each of the member here...
