I'd be happy with the Celtic's or the Cavaliers.

I would say a 2, but if your talking about Bazemore i would go 20.

It's sad to have to state the obvious, but we are a much better team without Bazemore.

As long as Bazemore is a starter, this team will always be limited no matter what else you do.

I just wish everyone and the media could accept it that Millsap is here to stay. Why would we want to replace him with garbage.  We really need to see what could happen after a couple years of Paul and Dwight together.

Does anyone think Splitter will ever play again in a Hawks uniform?

I have criticized Dennis a lot but he did look like he is improving last night.

He does give a lot of guys hope they could make it in the NBA.

Why you letting Supes bug you,  he thinks that Al is better than Karl Malone. I've had many a battle with him on this and realized he as an unnatural love affair with Al.  So you take what he says with a grain of salt.

Would you say Bud has an unnatural love for Dennis? Lol.

I do like him as a person. I just don't think there have been many wing players in NBA history that got paid like him with such limited shooting and dribbling skills. But we talking about the Hawks here.

He is the only Hawks player that I could honestly say I would beat for sure in a 3 point shooting contest. I think i could dribble better in high school than he does as a pro.LOL.

Korver is all heart ,  I respect him for that and he does his best out there.  It is simply not enough.  He is the most limited on offense and defense.  This is not new, korver has not been that guy since the playoffs against Cleveland two years ago.  Granted bazemore is playing well offensively,  it he plays pretty good D.  First korver then bazemore for me.

I would say Bazemore is the most limited out there. I can honestly shoot a basketball better than he can.

We need Schrader, an aggressive one. He lets him do whatever he wants out there, which isn't a good thing at this point in Dennis' career. 

I don't think it will ever be a good thing at any point of his career. LOL. 

I can tell you what the real problem is. Atlanta sports teams never just cowboy up like you have to. It is unreal how all of this cities teams are so soft. I am 50 years old and would have thought the law of averaged would have allowed me to see some toughness by now, but it looks like it will never happen. It sure is not Korvers fault. He has more heart than any Hawk out there.

What the hell are you talking about?   What possible basis do you have to say he isn't intelligent and appears drunk?  And why would you make a whole thread to cast these aspersions.   Check his record, check what this franchise has done since he's been here.  Check what everyone who's played for him and worked with him have said about him.  Check the number of championship rings on his fingers.   I mean geez.   You think he took a team with no star players to 60 wins and the ECF through luck?

I have a right to speak my mind because I have endured all Atlanta sports  teams as a dedicated fan since the early 70s. I get tired of all the excuses on here for this team. Everyone always has a goal to make the eastern finals and nothing else. At least  Falcons fans hope to win it all even if not realistic.  You act like Bud is your best friend or something. I don't ever whine about or confront other people's post on here.

Popovich got those rings for him.

I honestly don't think Coach Bud is a great basketball mind , or extremely intelligent for that matter. He is a decent average coach. He even appears drunk or lethargic sometimes this season.

This has got to be the worst team in NBA history to start a season 9-2. 

We would not win more games. This would not help us win eastern conference. He does not impress me when i have watched him play.

can you play any worse than dennis this first half?

Dennis can always come up with a new and better way of sucking. LOL.

I'm amazed to see Prince play so much. He deserves it.

May need to have Thabo backup Korver and have Baze backup Prince. 

Baze is a natural at backup. LOL.

It seems very unlikely that any other team could start 9-2 and look like this. This is mind blowing.

The two Ks will be out of the nba after their contract expires.

We can constantly swap PGs for the next forever, its not going to fix the real issue.

Is the real issue the German?

I can't decide which sucked worse. The Hawks first half performance or that halftime gig.

I watched the game last night and when we were in the 4th Qtr and Dwight bowed out, our guys look like they had no idea of how to move the ball and no idea of how to move without the ball.    We moved the ball a little and settled for Long shots when we didn't need to.   One thing we have to do is not become a team that stands around and gets used to relying on the three point shot.  D8's last points was an alley opp from Schröder.  I think we can have a lot more play if we run real plays.  

Defensively.. those last 4 minutes were terrible.  Without D8, it was open season on the rim.  That's our charge.  I think personnel wise, we have to go out and seek a BU rim protector. 

 

We have a good backup rim protector in Humphries if our coach didn't have an infatuational love crush on Muscala.
