He likes to spend his energy concentrating on shooting long jumpers.

I agree. Everyone including LD knows that Josh need to limit his jump shot and be in the post more, but I guess it's easier said than done. On a side note, I didn't mean to -1 the post.... clicked the wrong side.

I've been trying to find a good website to watch the Braves... all the basketball sites don't seem to work.

Well, we all called for less minutes for JJ in the past couple of years under Woodson. Now we got it and hopefully it shows in the playoffs. IMO, It's just that Joe's not making the shots he used to make, especially the three pointers.

Ever since Horford said he's going to expand his area to the three pointers, he's been off a bit. Hopefully he can forget about that.

Joe need to take some blame in his interview. He's playing like crap for a max player.

LD is disappointing me, but not all variables are held constant in this experiment. JJ got worsed, Jamal got worsed, Smoove got worsed, and the east has gotten better somewhat.

Teague with zero minutes on a team with 1 PG. :Nail Biting:

Is there a game tonight? yes. If Josh didn't clunk 9 or so jumpshots early the Hawks would've had a comfortable lead.

I was wrong about Shelden Williams. I thought he has more athleticism than what he showed.

He has a cold spell.

Why Sund just keep chucking away cheap prospect is beyond me. Jordan Crawford can be a cheap replacement for Jamal in which they're considering resigning.

Teague floaters look like Josh Smith's jumpers. Horrible. His last floater attempt has a wide open lane for a layup.

If you follow the Hawks (watch them on a nightly basis instead of seeing box scores) for the last 5-6 years, there's no way in hell you'd want Woody back. It's too frustrating to even thinking about it. LD has made it a bit more bearable in terms of in game adjustments goes and disposing most of the inexplicable asinine systems from Woody, but still leaves a lot on the table. The only transparent problem that I'm seeing with LD that carries over from Woody is that he doesn't realize Crawford is not a PG (hence no playing time for Teague) and over use of Zaza.

There's a difference between LD and Woody in regard to 2 fouls. With Woody, it's an automatic sit in the 2nd quarter. With LD, I'm noticing that if the team is in need of the player to stay in the game or if the Hawks don't have a comfortable lead, then he will play them.

Not really since Josh is not playing and he's like 70% of it.

If Al Horford was made the face of the franchise, I think it would be popular among the fans. He has the charisma, attitude, leadership. Basically the opposite of Joe Johnson.

When you have Zaza playing off the bench, it's not good. This is why I think it make sense to start Teague and Collins for long term. This way Hinrich and Marvin can come off the bench. Marvin, Hinrich, Crawford, Wilkins, Powell/Armstrong. That's pretty good 2nd unit scoring wise and defense. You got 3 capable starters on the bench at all times. And on the first unit, you have Al, JJ, and Josh doing the scoring mostly.

Ugh. More of Zaza tonight which means layup drills. Hopefully he doesn't try to score when he get the ball.

Should've been traded at the deadline. :scratchhead: He's a good one dimensional player but he's getting up there in age and wants big payday.

JJ getting schooled by Wilson Chandler.

Looks like Josh Smith hurt his knee. Didn't play but a play in the second quarter. :Nail Biting:

For a moment there, I thought it was Ronnie Brewer. Corey Brewer is probably not the player that will make the ASG go into luxury tax status.

I find it funny that some said the Hawks shouldn't run and gun. Haven't people screaming that the Hawks be a running team for a while now? Now that we have a couple of PG that can do it, you don't want them to?

More likely to replace Crawford when he bolt at the end of the season.
