  1. The FEEL is why bud let his bench STAY in the game after they brought the Hawks back. The FEEL shouldve let the bench take the last shot. Paul Pierce and the Wizards were very happy they got to take that last shot after being shell shocked by the Hawks bench.
  2. This is about the FEEL of the game. Thats what a head coach, ESPECIALLY in basketball, is suppose to have. Bud letting his bench STAY in the game was the right move, THEN, he went back to his starters by bringing Korver non shooting self back into the game, then, compounded it by not throwing conventional strategy aside and letting his BENCH take the last shot. I wouldnt have cared if Washington made both free throws. The feel of the game is you want your bench, which has SHOCKED the Wizards at the other end, to have the last shot with a 3 point attempt. The hawks bench earned that. No one wouldve questioned bud doing that.
  3. Bottom line, Hawks STILL have never made the Eastern Conference finals and it appears the string will continue.
  4. Foul. Put Washington at the free throw line. Dennis brings the ball down and the Hawks take the last shot and we not having this discussion........
  5. Lol. Antić is Hawks version of the Falcons Bierrman. No way they come out of the lineup. Antić is soo bad, that even Bud yanked him after the first quarter of that nonsense. Problem is, Antić SET THE TONE for the Wizards early dominance. By the time bud yanked him, it was over. Just the pure heart of the Hawks bench brought them back. Why Scott hasnt gotten more playing time has always striked me as strange also.
  6. I guarantee you the talking heads on the radio Monday morning are gonna agree with me.
  7. Holla at me win this 60 win team gets bounced out the playoffs by a team that won 14 less games than they did during the regular season.
  8. Did the Hawks win or the Wizards????? We will not agree, but i just knew we lost as soon as i saw bud was gonna let Washington DICTATE the final shot. Dumb move just like his rotations. Even dumb Caliprari over at Kentucky likes the strategy of taking the last shot and CONTROLLING your destiny, instead of leaving it up to a over time period. BALLERS want the last shot, just like Pierce keeps proving over and over. Just the FACT Pierce was on the floor wouldve made me foul Washington. The Hawks bench came in and TOOK OVER the game, then, you let all that work go aside by letting Washington dictate the final play. Nope, i wouldnt have done that.
  9. NO. You KEEP SHOCKING the Wizards by keeping the pressure on them to defend YOU. You give them FIVE more minutes to figure out what was going on and i dont like the Hawks chances. In this scenario, coaches DO take the strategy of fouling and bringing the ball down for the last shot. I rather THE HAWKS have the last possession, drive and kick out for the winning three, just like on the previous play. If Dennis drives, half the Wizards wouldve followed him, leaving either Scott or Moose wide open for the winning 3 attempt. Dumb strategy and Paul Pierce took advantage of it.
  10. Lets be real here. Coach bud lost this game. He lost it two ways: 1. Continuing to not let Moose, Scott, Dennis and Mack start or get more playing time over Korver, Milsap and Antić. Yes, korver has been a scrub since the all star break and Sap proved he is not needed when Moose started at the 5 and Horford was allowed to move over to his natural 4 position. 2. On that last play, WHY would you play for overtime by not FOULING and putting Washington at the free throw line. No way we win that game if Washington is given five more minutes to figure out the onslaught that was Dennis, Moose and Scott. The correct call wouldve been to IMMEDIATELY foul Washington and let them make two at the free throw line. Who cares if they make two because the Hawks couldve chose between a quick drive to the basket by Dennis on the other end, OR, winding the clock down for a last minute 3 point shot by either Scott or Moose. DUMB strategy and i know we lost the game as soon as i saw they were not gonna foul....Just dumb.
  11. Antić, korver, milsap, trade them scrubs and coach bud......... START MOOSE and DENNIS, bench milsap, slide horford over to the 4........ And another thing, i didnt like letting washington take the last shot without fouling and putting them at the line. Didnt like that strategy at all. I rather Washington make two free throws and we have the ball with a chance to win with a 3.
  12. I rest my case about Moose should be starting over Antić. Antić aint got no heart or game!!!!!!
  13. Keep DRIVING Dennis. Shake off ANY plays called and keep DRIVING..........LOL
  14. keep driving!!!!!!!!!!!! keep driving!!!!!!. damn korver, dennis, keep driving!!!!!!!
  15. Even the Washington crowd laughing at Antić............................lmao
  16. No way would i have thought the hawks would let a inferior wizards team dominate them like this. No way.
  17. When Milsap was out with the shoulder injury, and bud let Moose start at center, and let Horford slide over to the 4, Moose got into a rhythm and played exceptionally well against the Nets. Why he chose to start Antić, and cause the Hawks to get off to a slow start and allow Nene to rediscover himself, is beyond me. Antić IS GARBAGE!!!! Im tired of people defending him because he is a big dude who supposedly can spread the floor. DUDE IS GARBAGE. He is taking up a roster spot ( Payne's), and im telling you, this is why Elton Brand wants out. No way Antić is suppose to get more minutes than ANYBODY coming off that Hawk bench.... Letting Horford slide over to his natural position would also allow him to dominate other power forwards, like he did against the Nets when allowed to play over there. Horford is getting ate up also in the low post against Gortot. Bud is sooo hard headed. It is what it is though.
  18. Its over. When does the NFL training camps start???? This dude Antić has position on the blocks, has Nene boxed out, and cant get a defensive rebound that comes right AT HIM. Then, goes down on offense, has Nene blocked out, and SOMEHOW, cant snag the offensive rebound. Oh, by the way, Nene hadnt scored nothing in the series, until Antić starts................ Im done. No more trade suggestions, nothing. Coach bud knows what he is doing........lmao. Nene out there looking like the second coming of Tim Duncan against Antić.........lmao 60 wins for NOTHING...........
  19. as soon as i saw Antić was starting over moose in place of milsap, i knew it was gonna get ugly for the hawks........im done. the pero Antić love is gonna derail this team like it did last year...........
  20. As many CHANCES as Antić gets, he SHOULD have a good game here and there. Thats the problem. He is NOT consistent at all.
  21. I went and checked and you are correct, they scheduled this before Wall got hurt. Still, it doesnt seem right,
  22. Pero is the REASON i keep harping for another big. The Hawks are greasing the slide for him big time to get playing time. FIRST, they trade Adreian Payne to eliminate that competition, Next, they refuse to play a player ( moose), who is waaaay better than Antić, and lastly, Elton Brand wants to bolt to another team next year because HE SEES the crap thats going on with Antić and wants out..........
