  1. Was anyone AT the game? He has to be the cockiest player in the NBA and he's only in his second game. From the 3rd quarter to the end of the game he pounded his chest THREE times and pointed to the crowd after EVERY made jump shot, lay up, or FREE THROW. I mean it's nice to have confidence, but he has to know his place and Joe Johnson put him in his place.. the losing column.

    I guess Pink Floyd was right when he said, All and all it's just another brick "from John Wall."

  2. Coming off a 53 win season, the Hawks look to improve even more this season and take the next giant step forward. The Hawks ended last season in pure dissapointment. Failing to win even a single game against the Orlando Magic in the second round. The front office became aware of the Hawks problems and made immediate action to take this team to the next level.

    Mike Woodson was fired and replaced by assistant coach Larry Drew. Many saw it as a cheap way to fill in the vacancy. I was one of them. Drew came in with a plan. He is very different than Mike Woodson in several ways. Mike Woodson believed in switching on every pick on defense, Larry Drew plays pressure man-to-man D with NO switching unless they have to. Mike Woodson had a good game plan going into games, but when it came down to the wire, all you saw was Iso Joe or Iso Jamal. Everyone in Atlanta hates it. Larry Drew has brought the motion offense to the ATL. So far in preseason it looks terrific when used. Joe Johnson is getting easier shots then he's had in the past 3 years. Young players like Jeff Teague and Jordan Crawford have stepped up and played brilliantly this preseson.

    But what do the Hawks have to do to take that next step? I believe they have all the pieces to become a contender as long as they stick to there gameplan on offense. Joe Johnson needs to play more aggressively and be a teacher to young players. At the end of the season I see the Hawks winning 53+ games. There is no reason they shouldn't be able to accomplish this goal.

    There will be no second round exit this year, as the Hawks look to spread their wings and fly!

  3. Jerry Stackhouse?

    I just read something about us possibly acquiring him. He has PX90'd himself into good shape and if we get him at the vet min, it could mean that we will seek to trade Craw??

    Care to share the link you read? And there is absolutely no reason to sign him unless we lose Crawford. We have enough guards.
