Quote: I think Atlanta fans/media may be borderline more negative than New York media/fans. We are the 7th seed in the East after jockeying for playoff position with the Nets, and have one of the youngest most talented rosters in the entire NBA. I can't believe I even waste my time reading ish like this but it's just beyond aggravating that people could be this clueless and unappreciative WTF??? I'm sorry dude but you are dead wrong! You see how the NY media has been calling for THEIR owner to leave town??? It took this Damn long for the ATL media to come out with this. We have one of the best young teams in the NBA. We have had Sir Chuck at the beginning of the season say we would be the surprise team of the season and Larry Brown comment about our good young talent. We have had one 5 game winning streak and THREE losing streak of 4 or more games. You ask me, this media needs it a-- kicked for not coming down harder on the ASG sooner. When you have your coach who says we are suppose to be over .500 that is a tell tell sign you are under achieving. AND THE ONLY REASON WHY WE ARE STILL IN THE PLAYOFFS CHASE IS BECAUSE OF THE SORRY TEAMS BEHIND US CANNOT PULL OFF A WINNING STREAK

i have said this before... i have more worries with our big men then pg or scoring. we have decent pg play with AJ and Law. We have one of the best up tempo teams in the league. Our only problem is at big. Al is our only big. Once he gets in foul trouble it becomes very hard for our team

Quote: Quote: How much was League Pass? It's down to $99 for the remainder of the season. or $24 for the next 4 months. And that wasn't right to post that link after I paid for league pass. lol

Quote: Quote: Quote: Another comeback win for the Blazers lead by Brandon Roy and His triple double. When was the last time Shelden Williams actually made a basket for us? Chris Paul dishes out 19 assits in another Hornets win. Man its depressing being a Hawks fan at times. We are one of the youngest teams in the NBA and for the first time this decade we have a legit shot at making the playoffs. Go take your doom and gloom and dead horse beating nonsense elsewhere. Again, where would Brandon Roy play? He's a SHOOTING GUARD. We still wouldn't have a point guard. Chris Paul? Joe Johnson was brought here to be the POINT. It was one of the main reasons why we lured him in. You gotta a complete idiot if you thought Joe Johnson was going to come here and be the point guard. Players will say anything just to get paid how long did that pg thing go on for 6 games. Joe Johnson is a SG he never played PG in PHX except when players were hurt. Alot of Hawks live in fantasy thinging everything is so fine and dandy and everything the Hawks do is great wake up and smell the coffee. If everything was so good we wouldnt be the lauging stock of the league for so many years. Wake up and smell the coffee??? It's funny hearing that coming from a guy who has CP3 in a Hawks uni. LMAO

Quote: No local TV. You're gonna need League Pass (or a ticket) to see this one. I just got league Pass. just do not feel like buying a tic. let go Woody and i would be HAPPY. lol Until then, I will only take the free tickets from my VP.

Is this a blackout game?

Quote: Also think about it.... I have been a member on here since 2002 and have only 37 posts..... I obviously don't post for the sake of posting. I read these boards top to bottom every day. Also note that I put it was not a rumour, just a blurb in the mag. But... here it is 3 SECONDS LARRY BROWN claims he won’t stab MO CHEEKS in the back by pursuing the Sixers’ coaching job. [b[but does the same pledge go for Brown’s other former assistants? MIKE WOODSON’S job with the Hawks is attractive because of the team’s stockpile of young talent, and Brown’s recent visit to Atlanta has fueled speculation that he’s intrigued by the gig That is the main reason why I think he will not come here. I like him but i'm scared that he may slow the team's pace down.

Quote: Quote: PLEASE LET IT GO!!! The only thing that Billy has done wrong that is making me upset is having Woody coach this team. With draft picks everyone hits and misses. Feel free to list a worse top 6 lotto draft run than Childress, MW, and SW. I'm sure you'll find it easy seeing as you find "nothing wrong with it". The rest of your post was just more of the same BK excuse maker 1000 apologist bullshit. Welcome. W I did not say it was not bad. I'm stating it's OVER, IN THE PAST... HELLO WE HAVE PROBLEMS RIGHT NOW WE SHOULD AND CAN SOLVE. THAT PAST CRAP CAN'T BE SOLVED. PERIOD

Quote: the chances of him coming are between slim and none . . . because of our financial situation. He's want a bunch of cash and we don't have it. We have it. Now the owners situation is another thing. CAN WE GET A LINK??? WHY DO PPL ON THIS BOARD POST THINGS THEY CLAIM TO HAVE READ AND DO NOT POST A LINK SO THE OTHER BOARD MEMBERS CAN READ IT. WHEN I SEE CRAP LIKE THIS I THINK ITS JUST FISHING SO PLEASE POST A LINK, or is this info only in the magazine THANKS

Quote: DJ, I'm with you on Belkin--I'd be more than glad to have him here. We can't have 7 owners for a team--that's absurd. Belkin could probably become good friends with Arthur Blank too. I wish this f*cking ownership sh*t would end. said it! AMEN Bro!

PLEASE LET IT GO!!! The only thing that Billy has done wrong that is making me upset is having Woody coach this team. With draft picks everyone hits and misses. Yeah, you can talk about Roy and 3P… He thought he would get out of Shelden what he is getting out of Big Al. Why is no one talking about the Big Al pick over Yi or JR? Maybe, because Mike Jr is not doing that well and Yi’s team is not doing well. 90% was saying take Marvin just like 90% said take Big Al. It’s funny how some of you keep crying for 3P but do not want to trade Marvin for a PG. lol And… how about the pick of J-Smoove, the stat machine. If you guys want to cry, please cry about Woody because he is now. Those other things are in the past and we can’t change them.

Quote: Devin Harris the Dallas back up point guard would fit in perfectly with the Hawks. There is some speculation that the Hawks will atleast try to talk to NJ about getting in the 3way trade to beat out Portland. Now I can confirm this as its simply a rumor floating around the Hawks marketing team. So it could just be there idea and not BK...so who knows. Dallas Kidd Salim Malik Allen NJ Jerry Stackhouse Childress Lorenzen Wright AJ + Cash from Dallas Atlanta Hawks Devin Harris Brandon Bass Where did you hear or see this??? I can't find it. Sounds to me like you are just fishing

Quote: "The answer would be a team with wing players who like to run. A team with a glaring hole at the point and, perhaps, one in need of veteran leadership in the locker room. A team with enough scorers that Kidd wouldn't be asked to provide points, and a team close enough to doing something significant that Kidd could make a real difference. So tell me, based on those criteria … how do the Atlanta Hawks not qualify? They have the pieces to make an offer, too, if general manager Billy Knight -- who has a reputation as a reluctant deal-maker -- is so inclined. It would cost them Josh Childress, the expiring contracts of Tyronn Lue, Lorenzen Wright and Anthony Johnson, plus either Zaza Pachulia or Shelden Williams. Atlanta could get Malik Allen back in the deal too (really, Josh Smith, Joe Johnson and Marvin Williams easy buckets in transition that have been frustratingly rare so far this year. And the Hawks only need to rent him for a year and a half (or two and a half if a one-year extension is part of Kidd's ransom), so the risk isn't as big as it seems." C'Mon BILLY! YOU CAN DO IT!

The last three game have really shown that we need a BIG more then anything. When Big Al goes to the bench/foul trouble the teams work us hard in the paint. Law looks like he is improving at a very fast pace. He really looked good on that almost comeback. He played great in the last 5 min of the game. CAN SOMEONE SEEN A PINK SLIP TO WOODY, DAMN. Law should have had all of Lue minutes.

Quote: Salim has absolutely NOTHING in common with Monta Ellis. Nothing. Monta is literally bigger, stronger, faster, quicker, a better ball handler, and can jump out of the gym. Monta can get to the rim and finish. And he shoots a helluva lot better percentage. That is a really lame comparison. Lue or Salim???

Quote: Quote: Quote: You were once again reminded why he doesn't play regularly. Salim = chucker I WILL MOS DEF SAY THIS IS NOT A GOOD THREAD! THE GUY WHEN 1-7... SOOOOOOOOO WHEN WAS THE THE LAST TIME THE GUY PLAY??? SALIM NEED TO BE ON THE FLOOR MORE THAN LUE. AND COACHX YOUR POST ABOUT SALIM NOT BEING A POUR SHOOTER BECAUSE "HE NEEDS TO PUT THE BALL ON THE FLOOR BEFORE SHOOTING" THE ONLY SHOOT HE MADE LAST NIGHT WAS A SPOT UP JUMPER. 3 POINTER AT THAT TOO You sure are taking a small sample size. One shot does not prove a point. Not to mention it was vs. the 3rd string in a blow out. Guess you never saw his college career at Arizona where he was a proilfic scorer off the dribble and not the catch and shoot pure shooter in the JJ Reddick mode. In the NBA Salim sucks ! Sorry it hurts your feelings so bad. If and When Salim gets away from Woody you will see another Monta Ellis

Quote: As was stated the last few days, I think Salim is more of a "scorer" then a "pure shooter." A true shooter can catch the ball and shoot quickly with accuracy. Salim has to step into his shot or shoot off the dribble as he brings the ball up the court. That is how "scorers" shoot but not how a "pure shooter" shoots the rock. Salim cannot space the floor effectivly b/c when the ball is kicked out for him to shoot and open 3 he can't shoot accurately without taking an extra step into his shot and by then the defense has already reacted and rotated to him. Salim is not the "pure shooter" that many think he is. I hope Salim comes out with a 4/4 3 pt shooting night that makes me eat crowe but the only way he can do that is if we are down by 30 and he is thrown out their to street ball us some points. Well, the only shoot he made against the Sun was a spot up 3pt. So, for now your post doesn't look correct

I know how you feel. We just beat the 28th best team in the NBA, and we only lost last week to the 23th (Milwaukee) best team in the NBA

Quote: Why do you think the Bucks lose so much, despite having the backcourt of Mo and Redd? Because they do not have much Defense/Rebs coming out of their starting SF, PF

Quote: Are you guys retarded, who know how good Marvin will be in 3 year! Hell no to this deal, plus Mo Williams has a pretty big contract for the next 5 years. Dude stop with that crap! For all we know Marvin could leave if this team stay on this path. I would do this trade in a heart beat. stop living for the future. We are living for now, and we know Mo is a very good PG who would set this team off. It would Mos Def set JJ off to a good step. Mo, JJ, and V would open the paint for J-Smoove to bring his game to a new level. think of it this way... we didn't draft Marvin, we got Mo instead lol

Quote: Quote: In my opinion he will finish out the season no matter what. If he was not fired over the last 3 years they are not going to fire him now. Just my guess. We are pretty much stuck with Woody this season. I don't see him getting fired. You are right. As long as we are in the playoff race they will not fire Woody. Would they? I wish they would. I'm totally fed up with this guy. Our players are too good to be going on 0-3, 0-4, and 0-5
