There is absolutely no room for Dennis to grow into what you guys think he can be and for Teague to continue to grow and strive as what he can be. That is my strong opinion from watching games.

No room for both Teague and Dennis only going to cause problems.

Good win.

Hopefully Dennis gets his team under control in the 3rd

Let's not act like we didn't take the #1 seed to 7 games without Dennis or Horford. I still think we would have won game 6 if Bud had not have taken Teague out of the game going into the 4th.

Horford is a good player and one of my favorites but he has never put up superstar numbers. His numbers are not even impressive for an all-star. Horford fits the theory that perception is reality to a tee. His rebounding still concerns me as it has been on the decline.

Teague is no 6th man or Manu, I knew this would happen. Hawks are a silly franchise. Damaging Teague's trade value by having him come off the bench.

We are not going to keep Teague and Dennis longterm. Might as well get on with it now. Teague+Jenkins for Collison+Stauskas http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=ktwn5z7 Simply put it is the deal that makes sense. You get a vet backup to Dennis and a future starter at SG to study under Kyle and you don't lose much if anything.

Good win even though we tried to give it away again.

Good first half.

Now he just needs to start rebounding and you are not a hater because you state the truth

I disagree. even if he is better at some aspects it does not make him more special. That is my point and remains my point.

I don't see anything any more special in Dennis than I do in Jeff. I don't care about numbers because we are winning but if Jeff had those numbers people would be slighting him even in wins.

He already has come back to earth from what he was doing earlier. His per has been dropping the last couple of weeks because he hasn't been as efficient. I am just happy that he is showing to be a legit and valuable NBA player.

These two games have been more about the re-emergence of Mack than what Dennis could possibly do as a starter.

Yep, 8 pts, 6 assists, 6 rebounds, 4 TO's is enough to warrant this. I would argue that the team is winning despite Dennis instead of because of Dennis. Actually, I would argue that the team is winning because of defense and maybe Dennis is better at that or maybe not.

Good win, 3-0 vs Chi,Cle,Hou. only need 2 more wins to go 5-3 throughout the rest of the year and make it a win

Good, if they changed the rules to where this is legit.

Wrong how? and if they changed the rule great, this has already been stated.

Patrick Beverely is a different beast defensively than Kyrie. Howard is a different beast than Vareajao. This is just a totally different game.

No need to give it a look. Unless they changed the rule I know its not true that you can go out and sign other free agents before you sign your own. If they changed the rule then great we could have close to $25 million to go after others with.

I don't see many people falling in love with us. We still don't pull fans and are seen as a mess of a franchise off the floor. If we keep this current team the rest of the year and don't add or subtract salary we will be at around $41 million going into the offseason. Sap $12 mill per (If he plays nice and gives discount) DMC $5 mill per Antić $2 mill per Brand $2 mill per That puts us at over $62 mill without signing our draft picks or any new free agents. We don't have much space this upcoming summer.

When has that theory ever worked for this team outside of Sap? As for Brewer he got dealt to the Rockets for 2 2nd rd picks and Troy Daniels with Turiaf also going to the Rockets. http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/12053411/corey-brewer-dealt-houston-rockets

Shelvin changed the game in the 1st half. Al changed it in the 2nd half.

What a beautiful thing to behold
