  1. He was only effective in pre-season bc other teams lacked size. He has a good shot and should see more minutes against smaller teams. Not sure about that. He's a veteran that is on the team to be a leader in the locker room. When was the last time the Hawks a player like him? Stackhouse? His role is to mentor Al and Ayón when he returns. Can't say Brand is a complete bust. He was solid the first game.
  2. Can someone explain how the Pau Gasol foul was ruled a blocking foul? Here's the highlight. About 57 seconds into the video you will see the foul. It appeared as a charge. Milsap was planted and was outside of the box. p.s. the last playcall was awful. Was was Antić passing the ball?
  3. Small sample size. Let's see if he keeps it up.
  4. Carrol is doing exactly what he's supposed to. Hustle and get loose balls. His defense is solid. As others have said his intensity is something that has been missing on this team for a few years. He's the Metta world peace for the hawks. Every teams needs that hustle.
  5. The Hawks need this W. It is early in the season and will give the younger guys some optimism. They let the game vs the Mavs slip. You could tell they were a veteran team led by Carter and Dirk.
  6. Wasn't happy with his lack of effort last night. Seems like he is unhappy. Only one game so I will need a large sample size.
  7. Liked how Bud was playing Teague and Schröder at the same time.
  8. You don't think the Rockets would take a 2nd rounder or 1st? Maybe not since they want to compete this year. I'm not ready to deal Milsap. Sure. Get rid of one of the best young forwards in the game.
  9. Last nights game was pretty exciting. Was a great game until the 4th with 5 minutes remaining. If the game proved anything, it is that Milsap and Horford are not powerful enough offensively or defensively. The Hawks lacked a low-post game and were out rebounded 42 to 33. If Ferry is serious about making this team legit this year, then he needs to get Asik or another big man. Milsap could potentially play SF or he would excel as a 6th man coming off the bench. What do y'all think?
  10. Stat freaks love Ayón. To say he is a starter is a stretch.
  11. Tonight's the night, and it's going to happen again and again.
  12. Anyone have any news on Gustavo Ayón. Was looking forward to seeing him and Antić battle this season. So far, I've heard Antić has been awful in the pre season.
  13. Surprised Martin hasn't been cut. Havent heard glaring review about him.
  14. What makes anyone think TWolves would trade love? I've said this before, the only way the Hawks will get a superstar is through a trade. The FA market is too competitive.
  15. Teague will be traded. He is trash. Was pretty upset htey gave him that monster contract. Jennings > Teague any day. Teague doesn't play hard and doesn't lead. He goes through the motions and waits for things to occur around him. Watch out as he will probably average 3-4 TOs a game. He's not a good enough PG for a SA Spurs like system.
  16. It's very difficult to observe the games especially when they are not being broadcasted (lame Hawks). From the stat-line perspective, which I shun when I actually watch games, JJ did not contribute. His defense was also weak.
  17. Might as well vote Jenkins, Schröder, Brand....you only have 2 captains for a reasons. Too many captains creates the idea that the position is not valuable. Especially when 33% of your team are captains.
  18. Teague is a child and not a leader. Until he demonstrates that he can carry this team like he did vs. CHI in the playoffs he doesn't deserve a C. My bet is on Horford and Korver. Both work hard and lead by example. Horford deserves it since he has been with the Hawks for a bit and Korver is a savy veteran.
  19. I think Asik will be in a Hawks uniform in early November. He will be mad about the lack of minutes behind Howard. Hawks have lots of pieces to offer including draft picks.
  20. Yea! I made it! So excited since I've never been able to be in the same league as fellow members of HS.
  21. Kobe outside of the top 10 makes this list lose all credibility.
  22. Anybody have Insider access that knows what they are talking about for the Hawks? http://insider.espn.go.com/nba/preview2013/story/_/page/atl-1314forecast/atlanta-hawks-outlook
  23. Yikes! I understand signing Wilkins out of respect to Dominique. Royal Ivey though? https://twitter.com/NBAHoopsFun/status/389112759524130816/photo/1 What if I stop? Do they turn into Maravich and Petit?
  24. Okay, I'm not sure if I'm hungover or if I am hallucinating. I was reviewing the box score from Tuesday nights game. Did the Hawks sign former players Royal Ivey and Damien Wilkins?
  25. Thats crazy that someone has already gotten that far. Probably simmed 90% of the season. Would be interesting to see what their roster was. I didnt watch the video. There's always lots of Hawks fans on 2k.
