    Kyle Korver?

    I noticed by the Hawks-Sixers Boxscore that apparently Korver is not playing a lot of minutes. Can anyone tell me if he is still hurt or is Jenkins just playing that well? Will Korver's streak end tonight (I hope not!)?
  2. Thanks for the quick response! I was afraid that was going to be the answer! Hopefully, the Hawks can win a few remaining regular season games and hold on to the 6th seed!
  3. Can anyone please tell me if the Hawks end up tied with the Celtics at the end of the season who gets the 6th seed and who gets the 7th seed? Thanks
  4. I will admit that I NEVER get to see any Hawks games but I have followed them for YEARS but I get all my information from this board (Thanks!) and the AJC! But, all season I have wondered why the Hawks have not given more playing time to John Jenkins, Mike Scott and Johan Petro. And, while I do realize last night's San Antonio was just one game it was a game against one of the best teams in the NBA and all three of those players had what I considered very good games (Jenkins - 23 points, Scott - 22 points & 6 rebounds, Petro - 11 points & 15 rebounds). Am I wrong and the Hawks have had good reasons not to play these players more throughout the season or could it be bad coaching decisions? It will be very interesting to see what players AND coaches are back for next season!
  5. How does an NBA player go 0 for 7 at the free throw line?
  6. Congratulations to Korver for keeping his streak going tonight against the Celtics but by the look of the stats it does not look like he is getting much playing time? But, I guess that is ok since it looks like Josh is shooting enough for the two of them!
  7. I really hope Korver gets the record and I hope be gets it as a Hawk!
  8. Thanks for the answer! I have mixed emotions about the Bulls/Heat Game. I wanted the Bulls to lose since they are playing for playoff positioning with the Hawks but I really wanted to see the Heat streak come to an end!
  9. I apologize! I thought it was a good way to get an answer!
  10. Can anyone tell me if Korver still has his 3-Point streak going and if he does can you tell me how many games he is up to? He has at least a couple tonight against Raptors.Thanks!

    2014 Hawks?

    Although, I am NOT giving up on this season (once you get into the playoffs everyone starts at 0-0 and anything can happen!) but I will admit that I am very excited about the upcoming Hawks offseason! I have no clue how much the Hawks will have available but apparently they should have quite a bit of salary cap money to spend before next season. Hopefully, Danny Ferry will make some wise decisions and have enough clout to convince some quality free agents to sign with the Hawks. And, then I noticed this morning that the Hawks have two draft picks in the 1st round and two more picks in the 2nd round of this year's draft (is this true?). Between free agency and the draft the Hawks should have a great opportunity to add some good players and some much needed depth to their next season's roster! I am curious how many Hawks fans think: 1) Josh Smith will be with the Hawks next season and 2) Larry Drew will be with the Hawks next season I have followed the Hawks (from a distance since I live in Florida) for a long time but I am by no means am I an expert on the Hawks but I am guessing that this offseason will be one of the most important (and, hopefully exciting!) offseasons they have had in a very long time! I am also guessing that before Danny Ferry is done with all his offseason transactions the Hawks will look like an expansion team next season!
  12. I know I catch myself getting really upset with some of Larry Drew's decisions and Josh Smith's shot selections and most (ALL) of the Hawks losses but then I try to remind myself that IF my memory serves me correctly there were not a lot of high expectations for this Hawks team. Seems like to me they lost some key players in Joe Johnson and Marvin Williams (among others) and they were signing players with expiring contracts with the thought of just getting through the 2013 season the best they could and then regroup (supposedly they would have a lot of money to sign some hopefully quality free agents) and look forward to a better more promising 2014 season. Well, I know they have surprised me quite a bit and have done much better than I thought they would and they are even going to make the playoffs. I guess the better they played the more I expected from them but when they have some bad nights I try to remind myself that this was not supposed to be a banner year for the Hawks and in fact, they are probably playing a lot better than most anyone thought they would. And, if Lou Williams and Zaza hadn't gotten hurt (and, now, Devin Harris) who knows how many more games the Hawks would have won this season?! I ALWAYS want the Hawks to win and I don't care who (Lakers, Celtics, Heat, etc) they play I will always be disappointed if they lose but in all reality they have probably exceeded most expectations for them this season and I hope they win some playoff games but I am really looking forward to the offseason to see how Danny Ferry can improve on this team for next season! I have faith and confidence that Ferry will make some great moves for the Hawks which will lead to a very good future for the Hawks!
  13. I have a funny feeling we will not recognize this team next season!
  14. Good News! Josh only attempted 5 Three Point shots (Made 1) in the 1st Half today against the Bucks!

    Zaza?

    I am sure every Hawks fan in the world knows this BUT me so I am embarrassed to ask this but can someone please tell me when Zaza is expected to return to the Hawks lineup? I am really hoping he will be able to return in time for the start of the playoffs! I think the Hawks will surely need his toughness and rebounding in the playoffs!
  16. In a way that makes me feel a LITTLE better! At least the Hawks did not turn down any REASONABLE offers.
  17. For some reason (and, I am probably totally wrong!) I was thinking Philadelphia was offering Spencer Hawes and another player and/or draft pick for Smith. IF, that was true I would think that would have been pretty hard to turn down.
  18. It's looking like to me more and more that the Hawks will lose Josh Smith this offseason and get nothing in return. Hopefully, they can do a Sign & Trade (not holding my breath) or come to a reasonable contract offer (but, I am not sure either side is too excited about him re-signing with the Hawks) and I think it will be pretty disappointing if he leaves and the Hawks get nothing in return (I guess at least they will be able to use his cap space to sign another player or two). I know I read there were some trade rumors around the trade deadline but I am just wondering if there wasn't at least one or two offers that the Hawks might be regretting they didn't accept. Do you think the Hawks did the smart move and hold on to Smith or would you have traded him to the highest bidder?
  19. I wonder if LD is sorry/disappointed that DF and the Hawks did not trade Smith before the Trade Deadline?

    Josh Smith?

    So, it was due to injuries!
  21. Thanks for the information! That is very impressive! Hopefully, Korver will break the record (As A Hawk!)!
