  1. It's on the website. 15 bucks for 3pt shootout/skills challenge or 25 bucks for both.
  2. I agree. People is underestimating the impact of Rondo. Imo, they would be a middle of the pack team like the Hawks if it weren't for Rondo to get them to the next level. Hopefully Teague can do the same to this Hawks team next season.
  3. Well, the decision is not a hunch; it's base on the personnel on the team, I would think it's best to play small ball on this team to generate enough runs support for the pitching staff. And I like to see this statistics (if there's such a thing) of teams successfully getting a run in when bunting in a situation with no outs and a lead runner on.
  4. I can see why he did that; I actually prefer getting runners in scoring position with less than 2 outs. And bunting is the way to go. If I have it my way, I would have my player bunt the lead off guy who reach bases every time if they're in the bottom of the order. It cuts down on the double play possibility (and generate scoring opportunities). The difference in this game is I would go with a bunting specialist since Tehran is finished for the day. Didn't see this game but it seems the game was lost 'cause our closer couldn't close. Kimbrel's walking too many people to my likings.
  5. Does Marvin ever work on his handles in the offseason? He got Zaza-like clumsiness out there; every time they got the ball for more than 4 seconds something bad is bound to happen.
  6. It just gave them another reason to botch a call against the Hawks the next game.
  7. 17 Turnovers :negative: I think there's still hope for him though. But if he continues to take the jumpshot next game, then :rtfm:
  8. Collins didn't play much to say that he's not effective in this series. I've been calling for the Collins lineup since game 1 because I think Collins will do a much better job at boxing guys out then what Smith has been doing. They need the big lineup to stand a chance unless Joe goes perfect and Jamal goes off again.
  9. Probably the reason why he's not a starter for that NC team. I don't get how a bench player can be that highly touted.
  10. I was wondering why Josh haven't had any of those chase down swats anymore. It is clear now that's because he kept whining to the ref about a non-call every time he misses.
  11. Seems like LD is overthinking. It's like he's making adjustments before the other team makes the adjustments. Just do what works and if they figured it out, THEN you make adjustments.
  12. Might as well watch the game the next day because of the crappy online quality.
  13. When I look at the previous meetings with the Bulls this season, it doesn't look good. Safe for a miraculous comeback the Bulls have destroyed the Hawks, home or away. The biggest difference that stands out was the rebounding... +20 for the bulls/game as I recalled. I think LD need to dial up the big lineup for this one to have a chance esp when Hinrich is out. Additionally, I'd rather have Marvin and Crawford subbed rather than Zaza and Crawford. Teague, JJ, Smith, Horford, Colins. with Craw and Marvin off bench as main contributors.
  14. Zaza was not suspended in game 5 and probably won't make any difference. He was suspended in game 4 and the Hawks won anyway.
  15. Get ready for Game 6 Thursday. :ill:
  16. Heyward's bat coming alive after my comment. :popcorn: I like the new lineup where Heyward's hitting second and Freeman ahead of Gonzales. Now if Uggla can get a hit once in a while the Braves can go streaking.
  17. Last night, LD pulled Josh at least two times letting him know that every possession is crucial and that he wants to see Josh drive to the basket more instead of taking long jumpers with time on the clock. Woody would never do this, but I digress. When LD puts Josh back in several minutes later, a funny moment happened where the Magic left Josh wide open for a long jumper; Josh was salivating for a jump shot, but thought better for a minute and drive to the basket instead. The effect seems to be working there. But will it last for the next game and the whole series?
  18. Did they say if Collins injury is serious? Hawks need him to contain Dwight for ~ 20 minutes.
  19. Jeez. Even Heyward is hitting a slump offensively. I didn't think that was possible. :Nail Biting:
  20. The key is Collins. He has to play under control and not get 2 quick fouls.
  21. JJ played a great game. He shot well and even get to the line 8 times. Josh Smith played under control for the most part. Hinrich played good D and hit open shots Bench play good All seems clicking this game. Hawks may earn some respect tonight.
  22. He's hitting .300 the past couple of seasons about 10 games into the season. :resent:
  23. Well the biggest acquisition is hitting below .200. Weakness at the top of the order and the middle of the order (#2 and #5 spot) right now.
