I've been really impressed with Bud so far and i was very skeptical. To come out of the gate with all new players, no real scorers, and a bunch of first time nba'rs and play this well has been a pleasant surprise. Seems like he's sitting guys who don't rise to the occassion like Scott and playing guys that are doing well like Cartier. I like Antić. I'd like to see him continue to get time but all in all pretty good.

With as good a jumper (or set shot maybe) that Al has I think he should shoot a few 3s. If he pulls his man out of the lane it can open up some great cuts for others. Teague has been fantastic imo. Seems like he had a lot of detractors who aren't saying much right now. He's definitely made mistakes but all points are going to have screw ups with the ball in their hands that much. He's running a new offense with a ton of new players.

Not trying to be a smart ass but i think the word you're looking for is spelled 'duo' Anyway. I agree. Love watching these guys play.

I"ve heard rumors that the coaching staff asked Incognito to toughen him up. If that's the case its going to take on a whole new dimension.

So far I'm not convinced that Milsap can't play the 3. I know that's a double negative.

I thought i would, and i will always wish him well and be a fan but I"m not missing him at all. I know some folks around here really liked woody but when he left my stress level watching the hawks went down 50% because there was so much less stupid offense. Now that Josh is gone its dropped another 50%. What a friggin delight to watch guys put in max effort and make mostly smart decisions.

Its still early but how many people were saying 'we lost too much talent' and milsap was no josh smith. I don't know what Mo cheeks is doing up there but i really thought he'd reign him in more.

We closed it out though. We hit some sloppy play and bad luck but we're still learning. I"m not that upset we blew a big lead. I'm happy we had a big lead to blow (that didn't sound great) All I could think at the end of that game is : who in the hell still wishes that was smoove out there instead of milsap? Step back 3 that he drains. Floaters in the lanes. great assists, good rebounds. 3 double, doubles on the road from our 3 best players. Go Hawks.

Wonder if Al will get a flopping. He was definitely pushed but may have flailed a little. Dennis. I don' tknow about that. That's pretty ballsy of a rookie, pun intended.

Maybe no one wants to captain this ship?

WTF? I've never heard of that. Seems really dumb. I'm sure Horf will love handing the C over to Demarre Carroll, or whoever, after 6 years of leadership here.

I thought it was going to be this: http://www.hulu.com/watch/553591

I"m not that familiar with when he came on but seems like already having Curry, Thompson, and Lee is a huge leg up on what Ferry inherited.

While Smith for PIerce would have been a good deal I think i'd rather just lose.

This topic has been moved to Around the NBA... I"ll bite though. 7 attempts a game and 5 turnovers a game is pretty astounding.

Josh's form on his jumper is different and much better imo. I'm not a huge Gortat fan but he looks absolutely awful in this video.

Oh you went there! LOL

Hilarious. What would Antić say? една игра

Wait a second. This is for their one game? So how many minutes, or seconds, was Monroe on the court without Smith or Drummond. I call shenanigans.

Man I couldn't agree more about the wing position. We are super weak there. Hopefully Jenkins and Lou can provide something.

I totally agree. Greg Monroe would be awesome to have in a Hawks uni.

True and Calderon dished 11 assists i think. Still great game by teague but perimeter defense looks lost. well defense looks lost.
