  1. Our effort is pathetic. Al vs the rim on a wide open layup.
  2. You can say you weren't mad all you want but your words say different. I can't believe such a smart guy like yourself would let a fool like me ruffle your feathers so easily. The truth about my original post is it was a mistake. I was under the influence of a little rumple and half-assed looking for tickets on my phone for about 5-10 minutes before giving up. I'm not even sure if I looked outside of stubhub or ticketmaster since those have always been my go-tos for Atlanta events so kudos to you for finding tickets that I may have found if I looked harder. So congrats to you for winning an internet battle today while also losing your mind over it. Looks like I win overall
  3. Settle down and breathe old man esteemed gentleman. You seem to take this internet thing seriously.
  4. A win is a win is a win. This one should have been a blow out with us shooting 48% compared to their 36%. It was nice to see us get the call from the refs when Teague traveled on that last play where they called a Matthews foul.
  5. I hope the team comes out strong after 4 days of rest. The excuses of being tired are finished.
  6. Wow. A whole 8-20 tickets really disproves my point. It's still a middling franchise who has no recent success versus a team that has the second longest playoff streak in the league. I do wish I saw this before the game but we ended up having a great time at the Ohio State vs Univ. of Minnesota hockey game. There are tickets on stubhub for other Timberwolves home games as well. You don't have to be affiliated with the team to sell tickets on stubhub.
  7. No kidding. I'm in Minneapolis and wanted to see @sothron team play tomorrow and there isn't a single ticket available on ticketmaster or stubhub. Meanwhile, you can find a Hawks 300 Hawks tickets for $30. I guess charlotte isn't the only basketball crazy city in this country after all.
  8. Does anyone have faith in our great GM Wilcox? Edit: I just walked by him in the ATL airport.
  9. You really had no issue with Dennis's play in the 2nd half? I'm not saying he deserves all of the blame for this loss. I'm saying that he has been consistently bad throughout this season and he has helped cost us several games. It's about time that Mack gets a chance to at least treat water with the second unit instead of being the MVP for the opposing team. It would also be nice if Splitters fragile self was available tonight since Muscala weighs a buck 50 and Bud insists on having him play center.
  10. What's it going to take for Mack to get PT over Dennis? His sloppy play in the 3rd gave Toronto life and then the whole team quit while Toronto surged.
  11. I have some buddies in section 120 tonight. My former high schools bball team played at Phillips this afternoon so the coaches and all of the kids are staying for the game. I will be in section 117
  12. Hungry and ticked off Jeff is a top 1-2 PG in the East. I just wish we got that Jeff more consistently.
  13. Here's a nice breakdown of the December schedules for all NBA teams. We have something to look forward too, especially in the second half of December. http://hangtime.blogs.nba.com/2015/12/01/december-schedule-breakdown/ We only play 14 games, 8 at home. and our opponent win percentage is 48.6% which is the 6th easiest in the East.
  14. Hell of a finish by Teague after being up and down all night.
  15. Turnovers and poor defense are wasting a good offensive first half.

    I miss Ferry

    Thanks for the link, I haven't heard this before. Arnowitz's theory led me to re-reading some of the Windhorst story. One thing I missed in the original story is Bud thinking the right move was for Ferry to resign when this first happened. After my initial read, I thought the convo with Bud and Ferry happened late in the year after the Hawks found success. I agree with everything in your 2nd paragraph now. While I desperately hope to be wrong, I still think Ferry's firing will prove to be a huge mistake for the future of this team.

    In your opinion, is Wilcox Bud's equal when it comes to making personnel moves? Do you believe that Wilcox is the GM in the same sense that Ferry was the GM?

    I miss Ferry

    It seems obvious that Bud has autonomy under the new setup and there are no longer any checks and balances like there were with Ferry. Why would Bud throw Ferry under the bus if he was still going to have to answer to a GM? Do you really think Wilcox has the power to overrule Bud? I would guess that it's far more likely that Wilcox is a yes man to Bud.

    I miss Ferry

    From off-season articles, it sounds like Ferry is gone because Bud made a power move for full control. That move for full control will likely be our undoing if Bud continues to struggle in his role as GM. Where are all the folks who thought Bud was invincible and Ferry was dispensable?
  20. Splitter isn't capable of playing more than 20 minutes per game without sustaining an injury. His acquisition is looking about as good as the THJr trade. We have taken a big step back at GM with Bud and yes man Wilcox.
  21. Glad someone else gets it. Let the man play.
  22. I only saw the elbow and it looked like it barely connected if it did. I was shouting for him to be ejected last night but I would rather see him play tonight because of fantasy reasons.
  23. I never saw the punch. I only saw an elbow that looked like it barely connected or barely missed.
  24. I guess past history plays a part. Not sure how Boogie gets suspended for that while Teague got a pass for his hit on bjelica (sp?).
