Love the post game quote by Sap. Here's the tweet link https://twitter.com/cvivlamoreajc/status/557315032132767745 @CVivlamoreAJC: Paul Millsap: It’s a little bigger than 27 out of 29. It’s a culture we are trying to build. It’s something about who we want to become.” To get grown men who are multi-millionaires in a culture of celebrity and narcissism to buy into TEAM and SACRIFICE and WORK ETHIC...now that is a modern-day miracle. I wish every business, family, church, team, and even government in America could manifest this virtue, nobility, and integrity. We would all win!!!! Go Hawks! Shining the light of hope and being the example for ALL of us!!!!! Never been prouder of a team!

Look who's tops in the East among PG for PER, points per shot , and much more. This man has outplayed all the point guards over the last 26 games and better be an All-Star. If anyone doubts it, have them ask Lowry, Wall, Jennings, Irving, and after tonight...hopefully Rose! Go Hawks!!!!

Lowry (and a list of Point Guards who are "All Stars" and the "Best"...Chris Paul and more) got outplayed by Teague!!!! He was pouting;) Let the media pick their darlings and talk them up (they are all great players)...ignore Teague and the Hawks at your peril. I hope we carry a large, fat chip into the playoffs and beyond. Go Hawks!

Leonard is also 5 years younger. That is a BIG difference to me. Love the JYD and what he brings, however. Go Hawks!!!!

Missed that. I get pretty disgusted with the mush heads on a lot of the shows. He was a stud guard in his playing days, but shut up, Zeke!!!

i agree! I loved the Toronto commentators talk about the Hawks' "surgical precision"..."hard nosed playing" ..."they never take a possession off"... Post game they said the Hawks are the model of a new NBA game. Taking the best from colleges and the best from the NBA. I am stunned!!! Never in my lifetime did I imagine this. My wife is sick of me talking about it. I love it! Go Hawks!!!! Free Ferry!

i think Al dedicated the second half to you;) Go Hawks!

Welcome!!! The more the merrier. We are experiencing a season that we have all longed and yearned for! I don't want to wake up. Not now...not in the playoffs!!! Go Hawks!!!!!

did you post it? I'm on my phone and don't see anything. Thanks! Go Hawks!

You are a prophet. Great call!

I agree totally and this is part of my point. But until randawg91 sets the definition to shooting (pure and simple), the debate will never end IMO. Either way it doesn't really matter. I am glad we have Korver. He is a huge asset to this team and system. Go Hawks!

randawg91, Until you and your friend agree on a "pure shooter" definition, then you will be going around and around on the debate. If you define "pure shooter" as someone "creating his own shot" and then making them at a higher rate, then Korver will never win the debate. Historically we would not call that part of being a pure shooter. If you use the historic idea of "who would you want to take the shot (regardless of how the shooter got open)" then I would want Korver taking any shot other than in the paint. Dribbling and crossing over and shooting is a skill for sure, but people should not act like running around like a maniac through 2-3 screens and then catching and shooting in less than a second and making it isn't. What Korver has done is historic!!!! I think Steve Kerr might have been the last person to put up the 50/50/90% in the NBA. If I am not mistaken, Kerr played much less and shot significantly fewer shots than Korver. Korver is doing this on a larger number of shots which makes it even more impressive and less "flukish" IMHO. Hope that approach can help. Go Hawks!!!!

Al had to hit the free throws.

Just read another "Detroit is the hottest team" article...getting sick of them. Hoping the Hawks continual motion and defensive focus will bring us another W and shut up Zeke and the rest of the Detroit bandwagon! Go Hawks!!!!

Here is the link https://m.soundcloud.com/siriusxmnba/jeff-teague-thinks-the-hawks-have-all-stars-previews-tonights-game-with-detroit Sorry was in car and had no access to search for file. Finally got home.

that would be a sweet thing if he continues to be lights out. With his fitness and work ethic I'd say he could do it.

Tune in if you can. Coming up after break.

best line of the day!!!! Thanks for the belly laugh!

and also no one plays less minutes a game

Teague was beast! What an ending to put the game away!!!! Atlanta, we have our closer! Go Hawks!!!

Same here. I have been visiting their game threads and enjoying the torture the Hawks have been inflicting on the other teams. Turn about is good stuff;) Go Hawks!!!! Just don't move!

Thanks to both you and curtmcgirt for your answers. That eases my blood pressure a bit;)

Why is it obvious that the Hawks won't leave? I am completely in agreement on your last two sentences above...Don't mess with the leadership of the team!!! It's the best team the Hawks have assembled in my lifetime!

If http://blog.seattlepi.com/sonics/2015/01/06/report-chris-hansen-thomas-tull-planning-bids-to-bring-nbas-atlanta-hawks-to-seattle/ this happens, I will be so pissed! I have already feared having a new owner that is a bit more "Al Davis"-like in micro-managing the day-to-day operations, drafting, etc. This would be even worse. Sorry, had to vent for a minute! Go Hawks!!!!

There are lots of folks over there singing Teague's praise. Best quote: "That Teague should be an All-Star" Second quote: "Those Hawks are for real!" "They will come out of the East!" Good stuff!!!! Go Hawks!!!!
