During this incredible Hawks run ESPN has always had the Hawks as the 2nd or 3rd NBA story....honestly that's to be expected due to the fact that we don't have any "Star" or a character that can really lead a story. Verdict: Annoying but understandable. HOWEVER What is truly pissing me off is the ATLANTA Journal Constitution's total lack of front page coverage for the Hawks. Every night after a big win, I log on expecting to at least see a picture or two of the game on the main page............except it's never there. Today's headlines include the worthless Braves signing a middle reliever and a story about the Atlanta Streetcar opening....WOOOOOHOOOOO. The Falcons win? Can't find a damn thing anywhere on the page EXCEPT Falcons. I don't know what the behind the scenes relationship is between the Hawks and AJC but it's embarrassing and frustrating when this team is arguably playing the best they've EVER played and the hometown paper won't give them recognition. Shame on you AJC

BE THERE!

Wait am I missing something here......There are $10 upper's hanging around on Ticketmaster right now. $10 for the seat....get there early & you get $10 food credit. NO excuse not 2 come.

Oh the subsidy....that's a big LOL. He's promising a subsidy that when it would go into effect, he would be long gone. That's just mayor pillow talk. FRAUD

Mayor Reed is a fraud...book it. He's only playing this card to enhance his own political agenda which reaches far beyond the confines of City Hall in Atlanta. He has ZERO say in who owns this team....zero.

scouting report about 2 come out according to WSB

If Gearons ONLY intention was to get Ferry fired, then yes he's a master chess player.. HOWEVER I think what he ultimately wanted was to have him fired AND regain control of the team. The latter AINT HAPPENING>>>NO CHANCE IN HELL. So he's just a moron that gave up his stake in an NBA franchise and his reputation is forever tarnished as an a hole who leveraged a race war to gain power.

and WHO IS LAUGHING IN THE BACKGROUND?!?!

Reading back through the child Gearon's letter....where did Ferry say "Ferry completed the racial slur by describing the player (and impliedly, all persons of African descent) as a two-faced liar and cheat." Talking about Deng trying to manipulate the media doesn't equate to him being a two faced liar and a cheat......Gearon REALLY has it out for Ferry. That being said...this sucks.

I WOOOOOONDER who let cviv have that tape.......duh

Anyone know when the season starts?

I think it's crystal clear with this Silver article coming out why Koonin didn't fire Danny. Pretty obvious he's had Silver's good graces with his decisions. Now will that appease the "community leaders"? Nope.

Silver on the record defends Ferry http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nba/2014/09/10/adam-silver-danny-ferry-fired-atlanta-hawks-racist-comments-luol-deng/15406829/
