Getting Devin Harris would be great ! I wouldn't count on that too much though .Don 't need to be frustrated ...

Yes, they have.

Sorry for the previous post... We sucked tonight...and played stupid basketball. I got the feeling Drew has no control over his team. They are settling for way too many jumpshots. I m really tired of all the pick and pop plays. I used to love it when they were running it in Sactown through Bibby and Webber but come on, we gotta run pick and roll too. Smith wants to prove he is a shooter (give the man credit he did improve his shot a lot) but pick and roll would be deadly! I dont understand why we dont run it... I don t know if it was the game plan but i saw too many post up plays in this game. That wasn t pretty at all. The ball was stagnant.

It's ridiculous to have such a conversation after a good win. Can we stop comparing players ?

We finished the half on a 27-10 run, from 15 points down to two points up. We have to give credit to the starting five. They overcame that huge deficit

To be honest, Bibby played a big role in thjat come back. He's making threes, attacking the basket (!!!), trying to make the pass on the inside, stealing a ball for a well executed fast break.

Things not looking so good right now. On a run to come back, though. Our second unit blew an early lead while pistons went crazy from downtown. Starters back in the game, Hawks too ! Let's go Hawks !!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, we're not contenders. But let me say something i've said again and again : do you think a team can be better without good fan support ? Gone with the weather

Wow ! What the **** with this team !?! I really try to be positive but game like that makes it very hard. We ain't going nowhere with this roster. I can't remember real contenders getting blown out two times in a year by mediocre teams..

I don't think anybody can win against the Celtics in a 7 game serie right now. They execute offensively and defensively so well and are willing to win.

How can we know? You're funny. Bob and Nique dont know everything!

You might add play calling

From the Hawks PR guy "Appears as if the Raptors will be leaving Indy."

Seriously. We'll see... I've never seen superior one on one defense from Josh. He's great for blocking shots and steals. That's just part of the defensive effort and I'd say not the most important.

I don't think Al should be our go to guy yet. He's still not good enough at creating is own shot. He should be the second offensive option of the team.He's the fourth now...

We lost it in the fourth again. Bad coaching from Larry Drew tonight. His lineup at the beginning of the fourth was just ridiculous. We're nearly a very good team...but we lack that little something to compete against the best. Joe is a beast right now, the guys have been playing well but that's still not enough. We lack depth and confidence in the final quarters. That sucks...

Agree. Really bad choice from Drew. Down 10 now... how to lose a game quickly. That shouldn't happen. Drew should adjust

I hope he played that well cause he realized he's not a jump shooter and his team needs a post presence. Stick with it now Josh!

Man, this man has a very low Bball IQ...Shoot it when it falls, stop it when it doesn't. Josh is not a shooter. Shooting 45% as a PF is not that impressive. Sure, he's a very good help defensive but that's it.

Joe's hurt...back in the locker room. It appears to be the right knee I hope it's not serious. I've watched the play again and he doesn't land on this right leg. I think he got hurt by Wallace at the rim Yes. Wallace's feet on joe's knee

No it isn't. I don't see the point guard position as our biggest weakness on the offensive side. Our offense is working quite well as it is . I believe we are the third best team in assists per game and our Fgs % is one of the best too.. We have to get better in rebounding the ball.

Everybody on this board forgets that LA point guard is...Derek Fisher. He doesn't drive and doesn't defend on Westbrook or Rose neither

I'll try to explain my point. We all know this team isn't the best in the league, no doubt about that. We clearly lack the depth of the elite teams. But again... we are way better than 2/3 of the league. I've been an hawk fan for a few years now. I used to be a King fan back in the days of Webber, Bibby, Jackson etc.. I'm sick and tired of all the complaints, it's always the same sh**. "Joe can't play" " Josh is so dumb" " We can't beat bad teams" "we can't beat good teams" " we ca'nt defend" " we lack effort" " we ain't though enough" "we can't score" " Joe's not a superstar" " we are not tall enough" " We asuck at PG, SF, and center" " we have no post game" Let me tell you something. I live in paris and quite frustrated cause I don't have any chance to attend the games. But I watch every single game live. ( Remember: 7pm in Atlanta=1 AM in Paris...). I don't understand what you all want... We are a playoff team. We have an opportunity to make a run in the pleyoff and surprise everybody. We are a good team, you have to believe. C'mon, we are a 65% right now ! What would you say if we sucked like Toronto ? We have a chance. Again we are not the best team but we ll be better with better fans... Sactown was great for that.

What's the point ? You only bring frustration
