  3. Mark Jackson may be a ok coach

    He's someone I could see our locker room respecting. He comes across as an intelligent person on TV and was a fine basketball player in his day.

    Also, he had the line of the night last night referring to Glen Davis' saliva spewing mouth. "He's doing what Big Babies do. Drooling." :lol6:

  9. Shaq anyone?

    Just saw on SportsCenter that he's not thinking about retirement. If we can snag him for cheap, why not? We've needed a big for so long, so why not get the biggest big of all?

  10. Joe Johnson could care less about us

    After a day to take this whole thing in, I have decided that Joe Johnson is completely correct about this city in a whole. This city does not care about any of its sports teams, well maybe Georgia football, but thats about it. People in Boston, New York, and Philadelphia go to sporting events to cheer on teams that they love no matter how bad or good they are. Atlanta sports fans go to games and treat them like an event, How else do explain the fact that the crowd generally does not show up until halftime. Watch next season the building looks empty but somehow by the 2nd half more people have filed in. This cities sports fans SUCK!!!!! I am one of them so I can criticize as much as anyone else. Booing your team off the floor is absolutely obsurd!!!!! I know I compare Atlanta to Philadelphia, but booing your team off the floor is a very "philadelphia" mind set, and if you are content with the fact that your are acting like a Philadelphian. And if that's the way you want to be looked at then by all means go right ahead, but I beleive this city is better than that. So please just dont show up tommorow, stay home and boo at your television. It's a damn shame because this team has been so good and I would rather be playoff good than just outside of the playoffs and just outside of the lottery. Being mediocre in the NBA is far worse than being mediocre in any other professional or collegiate sport. You can never turn around a mediocre team which means we would have to revert back to 13 wins so you can watch a plastic ball bounce around to determine your fate. I LIKE PLAYOFF BASKETBALL, and if you don't then go root for the formentioned Philadelphia 76ers. I think that this team needs a new direction. Woody will be replaced at the end of this season and I firmly beleive that this team can be maximized by a different leader. I think half the reason Joe dribbles the air out of the ball is because Woodson knows nothing about offense. Be careful what you wish for Atlanta, booing our team off the floor, and we complain that players dont want to play in Atlanta, well you have yourselves to blame. You only show up in the playoffs anyway, and then you come and root for the likes of LeBron and Kobe. It's a complete joke that we are visitors in our own building when Cleveland and LA are in town. As a fan I am disgusted with this city and their fairweather fans, I can only imagine how it would feel if I was a player. Hats off to you Joe for calling it like you see it.... Hope you are in a Hawks uniform next season. I will forever love this team win lose or show!!!!

    Right because New York, Boston, and Philly fans never boo their own team?

    I'm tired of people raggin on this city's fans. For God's sake, we just had the worst playoff loss in franchise history, and followed it up two games later by the worst playoff home loss in franchise history, and we don't have a right to boo? We showed in game 2, that we can hang with Orlando. It's just a matter of effort. I didn't sense any real urgency in Game 3 from the tip-off til the final buzzer. And had I been stupid enough to pay for a ticket...I would have been right there booing along with everyone else.
