Not only scored the last 10, but got us off to a hot start as well.

collins had some huge plays tonight too!

he just has to realize when he has the hot hand and when he doesn't. first half, i wanted him taking shots because he was on. second half, he was just forcing bad shots. 55% is good for the game, but what are the percentages when you break it down by the half?

i was checking on on the daily dime live chat as well during the game and it seems like nobody respects josh anymore at all. it was a joke on there everytime he put up a long jumper, people were questioning if there was anyone in the league who consistently put in as little effort as him. pretty rough.

i think he's a great center for a team with a lot of drivers/slashers, which we are not. For us, we need a traditional large inside presence, which he is not.

my vote is for joe's shot. that shot was just beautiful and he held that hand up knowing it was going in the whole time. watching the game, i knew it was going in as soon as he shot it. still probably my favorite shot ever. jamal's shot was great and all, but there was a definitely a little luck involved and i hated every second of it until it went in.

yeah it would be great if ld brought up all the illegal screens and elbows, but i think we know that isn't really his style. not sure if i like or dislike him for that. svg does this in every series, so i don't think it should come as a shock to anybody.

it would be awesome to just have tons of people with printed photos of dwight throwing elbows at people. nothing fancy or huge, but just regular letter size photos. they'd be cheap and easy for everyone, the point would be made, and with enough people, they'd have to make it on tv at some point.

josh was awful, but we won and the good news is he usually doesn't have 2 of those games in a row.

just watching sportscenter now and jalen rose's assessment is: zaza gets 2 games j rich gets 1 game dwight's tech gets rescinded. wtf??? what is he seeing ?

that was awful. it may have been a foul, but definitely not a foul that you call at that point in the playoffs.

i agree about game 2. these guys don't look like they are ready to lie down. i saw that fire in joe that i havent seen in a long time.

I thought the players played great and LD's poor substitution patterns almost lost the game for us. Kirk was out for way too long while jamal was getting torched and chucking. just my opinion. great win regardless though.

that game by joe was probably the most excited i have ever been while watching a game. other than that, in recent memory i loved the baron davis dunk over kirilenko

wow. Al has been throwing up some wild shots in the 3rd.

I'd like to see him carry us or at least play well/smart consistently in a winning playoff series before I make that claim. I like what I'm seeing lately though, I hope he keeps it up.

I tend to agree with this. While I don't think we should have just thrown him in with the trade, we have plenty of guys who like to take a ton of jumpers already.

joe mainly because of that one game in the boston series a few years ago. That was one of my favorite basketball performances ever. When he's on (and i know it hasn't been much lately) he is one of my favorite players to watch. his shots hit the bottom of the net a little sweeter than anyone else's.

the point we all make about josh smith is that he does have incredible potential and he does have an amazing game sometimes. the problem is that he does not have good/great games consistently. when he has bad games, he can be really really really bad and almost single handedly take the team out of the game or shoot the team out of the game. if he played smart and within his game, most people here would love him.

Japan will appreciate his $9000 donation.

For me, the good times were back when I was in elementary school and I had a polaroid taken in either Big Star or Winn Dixie sitting on Dominique's lap with a signed ball.

Teague seems to play with a purpose when he's out there, which is more than I can say for most of the rest of the team. I really want to see him with consistent minutes.

this team is pathetic. i moved to the nw a few years ago and have always been loyal to the hawks, but this is just getting pathetic. how does teague start 2 in a row and then not see any pt?

I remember talking about how great larry drew was going to be for this team and how his new offense would be just what we needed. I never thought josh would become an outside shooter. I thought JJ was going to put up huge numbers this year. I thought it was going to be marvin's breakout year. Now that I read it, it seems to be similar to everyone else
