  1. I remember when we "got our PG" when we signed Craig. So sad how few games he played and how bad his jump shot was..
  2. Do we have our own thread? Lots of doomsdayers on here after the Baze and Howard signing. We are actually being aggressive for once, swinging for the fences, and taking what we can actually get (we would have never gotten Durant). This will begin the shift of perception of Atlanta as finally a FA destination. The system is in place, a great coaching staff, player development, and an amazing city. I think if we added Tyler Perry and his empire to the mix we would be unstoppable. That being said, I think we let the chips fall where they may and go support this new team. I believe Howard will tear it up and Baze will continue to improve on his game. Can we fill out a bench? That is my question.. Not even worried about Horford because we will figure it out. 32, 32, 32!! Proud of the Hawks today!
  3. Yeah man, I thought it sounded good.. cannot believe that I forgot he was on Detroit now... LOL...
  4. LOL.. Coffee hadn't kicked in today. Totally forgot!! Hey, at least I tried something ;)
  5. I am hearing Al Horford and 21 to Orlando (sign and trade) for Tobias Harris and #11. We will pick Buddy Hield at 11.. if he is not there then we will go for best available.
  6. We do not need to blow this team up... we have to play at our optimal performance to be great, and we just didn't do that in the playoffs. We are a lot closer to the 60 win team from the year before than people realize.
  7. If you guys ever need any other white Hawks fans, I'd love to throw my name into the hat. Great job again.
  8. Our fan base is growing, but still pitiful. We are 15 years of consistent winning from being there. Unless, somehow, we get a superstar.
  9. I like Sap better. Green's schtick is a little over hyped... Barks too much.

    Really?

    We shot very well in game three and friggin Channing Frye goes for 26 points... smh.

    Really?

    I think there is a "swagger" factor. The Cavs come in, disrespect Atlanta, and "know" they are better. When you have the better players, why not? Believe it or not, but Bud out coached Lue/LeBron in that series. We will look back and see that. I will continue to pound in the idea that if it were not for the historic performance from 3, the Hawks would be in the Finals this year.

    Really?

    Yes, sour grapes. Cavs have 12 (twelve) 12!!!! Threes in two games versus the raptors and didn't make less than 15 per game against us. Had a game with over 25 threes. We had the perfect game plan to beat them. Play the percentages. You will literally never see a team shoot like that again. Makes me sick. This isn't even a series.
  13. It pisses me off that they have all of the ring chasers on that team. Also got Lebron to come back after crapping on him when he left. Got the first round pick for Kyrie. Got the first round pick AGAIN for Wiggins Traded for friggin love. Traded for all of those other great pieces (Smith, Shump, Mozgov--who doesn't even play) just unreal how they have been able to assemble a team like the New York Yankees with little pushback.
  14. What does Christianity have to do with any of this? He also cusses in all of his movies. Let's not make his "faith" an argument. Also, do you think he didn't take a dime when he did the "Passion" tv special on fox? Cmon man.
  15. I think this was discussed before. Atlanta could be the new LA (minus the hot chicks). Tyler Perry has been killing it out here.. Why not try to attract some FA talent to Atlanta via the hip hop scene, the booming movie industry in Atlanta, etc? You can come get a Max deal in Atlanta, be the man, and be in movies... boost your net worth. No? I just don't know why TP hasn't been engaged. Ludacris, TIP, yes... Perry? No.. Why?
  16. What an embarrassment on inside the NBA. Saving for for the morning when I have time to post all of the examples.
  17. We don't have the talent to even compete with Cleveland. This was an A- coaching job. Again, the Cavs were historic from 3... You have scrubs like Jefferson and frye just crushing it from 3.. And if there were any dry spells, someone caught fire (like love or Irving). It it was just unreal how we kept these games so close.

    Damn, Bud

    Our best players played terribly. The Cavs were HISTORIC from 3. And we were in 3 of the games with no superstars. Should had won at least 2 of them. Yes, hump should have played more.. But bud made some adjustments. We just don't have an elite roster. We don't make it to round 2 with Drew or Woody as coach.
  19. He could have played humph more. That said, we greatly out coached the Cavs. Should be 2-2 now.

    Damn, Bud
