I'm not a fanatic. I'm too pessimistic for that.

I want them to be a contender, but I understand that the franchise doesn't really have those ambitions and so it's hard to truly get excited about the franchise.

I remember when I was more excited. One of those playoff years I was dumb enough to actually believe they would beat the Bulls.

thank you for responding, so you just have high expectations,that explains why you post negative most of the time

I've already answered you.

Miami has more talent, but they have some old players.

obviously dodging my questions lol

Bud isn't even smart enough to realize that Korver is a washed up has been. 

Last year was a complete fluke. 

okay so you're not a hawks fan then am i right? you just follow the team and talk how bad the team is, since back in the 90s ?

He isn't a drunken retard like Bud is. Boston isn't all that talented, but Stevens is getting a lot more out of his team than Bud is.  Bud is a failure of a coach.

and last year when coach bud won the coach of the year and hawks won 60 games for the first time in franchise history, you didnt say "Stevens is a failure of a coach" really nice and by the way did you just dodge last question again lol?

I think Teague was just trying to not make the same mistake he did in regulation and run the clock out. That's the one that got me more than anything, just get a damn shot up at the rim at least!  He actually should've passed early to Al in that situation when they came to double, but instead did it in OT when it made less sense?

yea they really need to know and decide whos the go to guy on the team

I follow the team. I've already explained that I hate the word fan.

So you just follow the team but you're not a fan of this team since back in the 90s?

I follow the team. Nobody follows a team for 25-30 years of their life by being a "troll". 

 

So you're a hawks fan then right? knowing that you followed the team for 25-30 years

Why do they deserve positive things said about them? They do nothing but fail when it matters. They haven't done shit this year but beat mediocre and bad teams. You want me to praise them for beating shitty teams like Detroit and Chicago?

im not trying make you praise this team, i just wanted to know if your even a hawks fan or just some random guy signed up in this forum back in the 90s and praise how bad this team is till now

Not going to dig but he's said positive things in some of the past game threads. Obviously not this last one though. 

okay so he's still a hawks fan right?

He's definitely said some positive things this year. Terrifying really. Lol.  

That said, it's one thing to be a fan but it's another to think that they've got enough to really win big in the playoffs. We've seen the same episode over and over for the past decade with bandaid on top of bandaid.

We all want the same thing but this current team isn't good enough to get it. That's just the truth. *shrug* 

really he said something positive about the hawks? what did he say?

1 minute ago, Hotlanta1981 said:

I don't like the word "fan". Fan is short for "fanatic" and means illogical optimism most of the time. And that's not reasonable since the Hawks always end up getting their s___t pushed in every year.

just say "yes" or "no" dont make it complicated

Just now, Hotlanta1981 said:

I've been more quiet this season overall in comparison to the years past.

Are you even a hawks fan? or do you really just enjoy posting how bad this team is?

Just now, Hotlanta1981 said:

I've been on the Hawks forums dating back to the really late 90's.

Did you even root for hawks back in the 90s? or did you just post how bad the team is in the forum like now?

Just now, Hotlanta1981 said:

What have they won? 

yep its clear to me now that you never rooted for this team since they day you signed up in this forum

Just now, Hotlanta1981 said:

I've pointed out that the team is 0-9 against the teams with the 4 best records in the NBA.

How is that trolling? Those are the teams you have to beat in the playoffs and the Hawks can't beat them. Not even when the team is missing their best player (Stephen Curry in the 2nd meeting) or the other team is on a 2nd night of a back to back and you have them at home.

It's just amazing at how little this team has accomplished this year. They've easily lost every series to basically all of the playoff threats.

You're just gonna find another subject just to keep posting negative comments dont you?

That post was original.  You're clearly on the thought provoking edge of HS here.

Now that we have anointed you the official "comment police" plz share with us how he is wrong.

im not trying to police hotlanta, im just asking him why he still here posting negative and praising how bad this team is, i never seen him post a single positive comment even when hawks win a game, he just stays quiet.

Well, the Hawks can beat teams like Detroit, Indiana, Dallas, Houston, Charlotte and other such teams.

Anyone that pays to watch this team in the playoffs is a sucker.

you're a sucker too, you dont even cheer for this team, all you do post negative/troll comments

These results have happened many times and will happen many more times in the future.

It's the same results that we got in the Babcock and Joe Johnson days. 

why you still here? you dont like this team anyways right?

The Hawks are what the Spurs would look like without Leonard, Parker and Aldridge. A great system,  with average talent. The system is making these scrubs look better than they are.  Its plain and simple. Without a big time scorer in Atlanta,  they are not gonna win a championship.

i agree that they do need a big time scorer but i dont agree that you calling them scrubs

1 minute ago, NBASupes said:

I would say our best players are better than Aldridge and Parker. Leonard and Duncan tho....

better than Aldridge? your trolling right?

I don't mind that decision, if Teague drives with three seconds the help defense will get there and there isn't time to kick out.  However, there were a lot of plays and decisions in crucial times in the fourth and OT that were very questionable and unfortunate. The Baze unforced TO, the Thabo three point attempt early in the shot clock, the Paul Millsap ISO call in the wing. Burning a TO for no reason etc... We need to get better at end of game situations, it has been an issue all year. 

Part of the process, figuring out how to win close games and not making the same mistakes

I dont think Durant is interested signing with the hawks, he rather sign with contending team

1 minute ago, NBASupes said:

He sucked with the rest of the bench outside of Thabo

so you blame almost the whole team then right?

Bud and Horford who are the leaders need to be better.

So your not blaming Schröder turnovers?
