I hope Baze and AL doesnt get too hungry for money.. if they do  i will lose respect for them if they choose money... My Spurs Tim duncan, Manu ginobili and Tony parker sacrificed and accepted small salary so the team will have more cap space ,they did it for their team.

dude, no need to apologize it is me and my countrymen who are spamming your forum with terrible english:D Like every german would have kinda understood my intent, but even than....

feldschlößchen is/was terribly small and very local so almost noone would have known:D your doing just fine on your way to get schröderized:D

Btw just pronounce it the way you feel, we germans love the effort of someone trying to speak the way. We feel truly honoured:D

If you search youtube there is a video of dirk talking to a guy in a wheelchair, which is about the sweetest thing ever, since the wheelchair dude is clearly american but was born near dirks hometown and dirk just enjoys hearing someone with his disability(i mean dirks disability btw, he talks franconian which is not real german for the matter) (my mom would hate me for that since she is franconian and i an living in franconia) to speak so much. If he was a girl he had been pregnant after 1 second of listening to it.:D

Haha, your english is fine

It's really cool to talk to international fans, you learn something from their culture which is awesome xD Also i love when a team have a mix of international players

well feldschlößchen is/was a decent beer. We from the capitol of lower saxony (crazyeye might differ) really think that wolters is a terrible peace of junk. btw crazyeye lets not blow this hannover braunschweig stuff in here out of proportion, spursfanpeacemaker what did you think i was offering dennis? its all about your dirty mind:D

 

Ahh feldschlößchen is a beer, thanks. Sorry, i dont really understand German, forgive me lol,

I saw "Hug", so yeah lol almost misleading but i knew  feldschlößchen meant something else ;D

well i learned something new in German, but i don't think i would say or pronounce  it right lol xD

Last year Delladenova Diver dived into Kyle Korver ankles, and Korver was out for the playoffs and had surgery... I respect Delladiver for his game, but i still hate him for doing that to Korver.. 

DMC is not here anymore, but Thabo now is here,  and Hawks are different team compared to last year.

Cavs have three superstars, Kevin Love, Kyrie Irving, and Lebron James

What do you guys think are they keys for the hawks beating Cleveland next series?

My Keys;

1. Defense

2.  Playing collectively, and playing for each other,  because Hawks dont have a superstar player like Lebron

3.  Competing, play hard, and giving their best, even Cavs are favored to win the series

I would really like to see Horf stay in Atlanta, but if he really cares only about the money, you can't stop him from leaving

well i am no fan, but i am not into some kind of tesgue vs schröder battle. I want teague to start, bc he is way better and even Dennis said it. There is no point to argue about Teague is our man. But still, a franchise is not decide by the best player, its about the player with the most profile, and that is dennis after this series. I am so proud and if it was no homo move, i would take him in, hug him and give him a signature hug of mine:D Maybe even a feldschlößchen if he is up to it...

 

Ah i see, what is feldschlößchen? lol

Alright folks, i know noone wants to read stuff from a german !not! fan, but i feel like i gotta give my 2 cents after watching this franchise for the last 3 years(and being drunk). Give yourselfes a hand for hanging on to the right team and did so great to lead this team to greatness, or didnt u? You cant hang on for the right team. you can only support YOUR team. This team might not have a Durant or a Curry, so what? This team is what YOU got if you deserve it or not. So stop being all pessimistic or all cautious. Reserve this to the boring europeans and please let your spark jump over to us. Let us be the resonable voice in the back of your head and let us be pulled away by your enthusiasm. i KNOW my german fellas and me, we want to enjoy success we are willing to walk through the valley of defeat, but we also want you guys to help us through the day. We spend our nights watching this team and some of us even every night during the regular season. So maybe you can show just some kind of appretiation now since the going gets though, this team is great!

There is no need to say anything after this, this team just is great!

 

 

And for you Dennis haters: yeah your right dennis isnt Dirk, Dennis isnt Allen Iversen or Rajan ROndo, Dennis is Dennis and he definitly is the face of your franchise aslong as he is here.

Yes he isnt the best player, and yes i am biased, but think about the following: How would you do being 22ish years old playing far away from home and getting booed at every night? Easy? since he makes a lot a money? Money really doesnt matter for that guy atm. Dennis needs to get supported. He will definitly perform so much better if he knows people behind him. Being 22years old he became the bad guy. he did everything to get his team in a good situation. Definitly it wasnt always great but he created space for his teammates by pulling all the hate onto him. At 22 years? Come on, he took as much responsibility as anyone this series.  Atlanta will never be known for the great player Paul Millsap is, or the reliable spotupshooter that Al is. Not the great streaky shooter that korver is or the genius like pg that teague is, at the moment its for that crazy little german point guard that doesnt back down from anything. Life with it, this team just got a face!

I follow the team in the first place because of Bud, but i support the whole team and all the players. and after watching them in quite some time now, i became fan of the team, because i do enjoy watching them how they play for each other, and do it collectively as a team.

 I know you follow the team because of Dennis and he's German. But all these Jeff and Dennis fans duel nonsense really needs to stop, they are both at the same team, and they support each other,  If you just support the team  just because of dennis, there nothing wrong about that, no one can stop you from cheering dennis. If you're really fan of the team not just individual person or player, just appreciate that Hawks have two luxury really good point guards.

Great win, Hawks could have close this series earlier, if they won those two close losses at boston homecourt. Glad to see they win at boston tonight!

Give credit to the boston celtics, they fought really hard without avery bradley, one of their key players, and never gave up till to the end in game 6.

Next series vs Cavs, obviously Cavs are more stacked with known talented players, and superstars, gonna be a great challenge for the hawks, and looking forward to the matchup. Im still rooting and supporting for the hawks !!!

Let's go Hawks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Boston down, now beat Cleveland!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You have to contain Kyrie Irving, Kevin Love, and Lebron James, I think Hawks are the only team in the east are capable guarding Cleveland, But yea cleveland has a lot of firepower, will be  very difficult for the hawks

Great blowout win!!!

that 1st qtr was so depressing, i was hoping that they show some spirit, then 2nd qtr they definitely showed a lot of spirit!!!

I really think when they play for each other, with a lot of ball movement,  that's when they play at their best. That's what i miss seeing from hawks

Great win, and 1 more to go, win game 6!!!!!!

Let's go hawks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Teague cant bring Atlanta Hawks to the championship by himself, you need to have a really good team to win a championship. Sap scored 45 points in game 4 and they still lost the game, There were a lot of possesions where hawks rush shot for 3s, and missed, they should have value each posession more carefully not rushing for 3pt shots. Turnovers are a factor too. 

I also would like to see Horf and Sap, use the paint more to score, do some post ups not just 3s

Game 5 is an important game, Hawks gotta win the next two games. I dont really care what the critics says, hawks have my support, and i will still root for them 

Let's go hawks!!!!!!!!!!! win game 5 and game 6!!!!!

positives are the refs, oh wait thats negative..

Just saw that no-so-Smart flop. Priceless! Somebody get Vince McMahon stat!

~lw3

i remember seeing this flop, he even acted like he was hurt lying on the floor lol.. but yeah im still frustrated about the calls refs made

ESPN after celtics gets a call: "little brush on the nose"

Sap didnt get any calls, he got hit a lot of times.

Hawks have to outplay both celtics and refs, to win in at their homecourt

Definitely Jeff Teague, but everyone needs to play really at high level to win a series, not just one person. Just like Tim Duncan said "You can't do it alone, no matter how good you are, you have to rely on your teammates"

Poor birdy: https://www.rt.com/viral/340421-atlanta-hawks-mascot-fail/

Teague was on fire, Baze, Horf, and SAp played really well. Dennis and Kyle needs to play better in game 2.

I really like how hawks played together and collectively, and their defense is really solid. As long Hawks play great defense, they will be okay against the celtics.

Judging from this season, 1st or 2nd round exit.. but who knows, they might prove us wrong

I have to be honest i don't think they will reach the ECF this year, they're still having consistency problem, and they still can't beat Cleveland.  Im not saying that they dont have a chance against the cavs in the playoffs. My spurs got swept by the thunder in the season but they beat them  in 2014 playoffs. Im still gonna support and root for  the hawks in the eastern playoffs 

doesnt matter all teams gonna be challenge for the hawks

We have a system, not a go to guy.  

Can the system create a shot for ( insert Hawk Player's name here ), with less than 7 seconds on the clock?

i know hawks have a system, but when it comes to close game situation, 4 secs left without timeout, who's gonna take the last shot?

I noticed everytime Hawks are in close game situations, it seems like no one knows or sure who's  going to take the last shot. When my Spurs are in similar situation, it's always Kawhi having the ball to take the last shot. When i watched the hawks vs cavs last night, it seems like everyone afraid to take the last shot or dont want to get embarrased  or blamed for missing the shot..  I really think it should really have been Teague taking the last shot, and taking the role as go to guy, he's the best player in the team in my opinion, but last night at the end of OT, i saw him hesitated and just passed the ball to Horford,  He almost made that shot though. Who do you think should be the "go to guy"in this team?

He obiously watched ESPN and they talked about clock management. You have to know what plan changes were made in the timeout to know if they were needless. 

Hawks had two chances to win. Get the steal on trapped Irving without fouling or hit the last shot. So I wouldn't blame Bud.

At first the refs were okay but later they whisled some shit. Like the offensive foul vs Dennis. Delly's feet weren't even in the ground... And Lebron got away with some shit late in the game...

Yea hawks had a lot chances, they really need to limit their turnovers too, it's a big factor, if they play great defense, decent scoring and low turnover they have higher chance beating talented teams like cleveland
